COMMUNITY NEEDS ASSESSMENT:                        Olmstead Room
Periodically, each Lions/Lioness/Leo club should assess the programs and services they provide to their local communities. Through a simple survey and analysis of community leaders and other residents, you will be able to understand and determine: What kinds of volunteer service your community really needs, Whether your Club's current service projects are still needed by the community, If other organizations in your area are already providing similar services Result: A Community Needs Assessment will help you better serve your community by helping you focus on projects and programs that are important to the people in your area. In addition, by conducting programs that are meaningful to your community, your Club will be able to demonstrate leadership and pride that can help build team spirit within your Club and attract new members. The focus of this seminar is on Service Projects, not Fund-raising!
