April is Volunteer Month! 2021 Schedule of Activities

Volunteer Month is a nationally recognized month for nonprofits to acknowledge and thank volunteers for their efforts and to encourage further volunteerism.

We have an exciting month planned that will celebrate and recognize your efforts as dedicated volunteers, raise funds and gather applications for the SMART Recovery Training Scholarship Fund, as well as showcase the many ways we are working to better support you in growing SMART’s presence in your local community.

We are looking forward to a great Volunteer Month! Please plan to join us for the festivities.
