Training & Workshops

As a leader in volunteerism and effective volunteer management, HOSC serves 44 towns and villages in the Northwest Suburbs. We actively drive change to meet the needs of underserved and marginalized individuals and families. We support our volunteers, communities, and partners by providing collaboration opportunities, resources, tools, and robust support systems.

We actively listen, gather information, identify community needs and gaps, and share information. Our agility allows us to deliver the most relevant and impactful services to our community, partners, volunteers, and neighbors. Additionally, we offer annual training sessions and workshops on critical topics for nonprofits, ensuring they are well-equipped to serve effectively.

NOTE: HOSC Community Partners – organizations that have paid the annual agency fee – receive complimentary/discounted admission to our training as a benefit of their membership.
