The Impact of COVID-19 on Volunteering in Maine: Survey Results and Infographic

The purpose of the survey -- conducted by the Data Innovation Project on behalf of Volunteer Maine, the state service commission -- is to help gain a better understanding of the impact of COVID-19 on Maine's nonprofit volunteer base, identify innovative solutions to the current situation and gain useful insight into how Volunteer Maine and its member sites can most effectively contribute to the recovery efforts in communities across Maine. The Data Innovation Project and project partner the Survey Research Center are part of the the Cutler Institute for Health and Social Policy within the Muskie School of Public Service at the University of Southern Maine.
