How do we gauge and understand the *impact* of volunteer programs in
respect to improving the quality of life for both recipients and
participants?


 How can volunteer organizations ensure they are *meeting local needs *and *
preparing *volunteers adequately for *integration* in the local context?


 How can volunteers prepare to *manage the stresses* of working with the
impoverished, the traumatized, or survivors without getting overwhelmed,
stressed, or burned out?


 What *criteria* should a potential volunteer look for when considering the
many volunteer options available?
