1. What are some ways in which WRV can intentionally recruit a more diverse group of volunteers? What supports are needed to retain this group?
2. What are some roles that could be filled by people with different ability levels?
3. Is there space for children or younger people in WRV projects? Are all age groups being actively included? If not, what facilities could be provided for parents who want to volunteer but have young children to consider? ie. Day care.

I've done a few projects, and it seems like there are plenty of jobs for little ones. My kids get way into seed-spreading and "stick collecting" (4 and 5 years old). Why not make a special "kid's team"?
ReplyDeleteHow about a tent for the REALLY little ones to play games, learn and help where they can? I'm sure someone would LOVE to volunteer for a thing like that.
ReplyDeleteI'm all for diversity and difference... but aren't we supposed to be focused on healing the land?
ReplyDeletePeople are part of nature, too. I believe that healing RELATIONSHIPS between all types of people and all types of land is what its really all about.
