Standards of Excellence

Hands On Greater Portland has been helping to organize and manage meaningful volunteer opportunities with our partner agencies in Multnomah and Washington Counties for more than 10 years.  Through the years we have listened to the feedback of both our partner agencies and volunteers on what makes a project meaningful. 

Below are our Standards of Excellence and Best Practices for both our calendar projects and referral opportunities that reflect this feedback.  These documents guide the Hands On Program Team in approving and reviewing calendar projects and referral opportunities.
