The NNVRC is a strong national network of Volunteer Resource Centres established in 2017, that work together to strengthen community resilience, by building the capacity and sustainability of small to medium volunteer-involving organisations. Network membership is open to localised and independent, not-for-profit Volunteer Resource Centres that build community capacity through the provision and promotion of information, support, services and mentoring to individuals, organisations and communities about all aspects of volunteering.
