Description of the Book:

RSVP (Retired Senior Volunteer Program) is one program of ACTION–The Agency for Volunteer Service. ACTION, created in 1971, is a Federal agency which administers a number of volunteer programs. Its purpose is to provide a recognized role in the community and a meaningful life in retirement for older adults through significant volunteer service. Senior volunteers must be age 60 or over; there are no eligibility requirements for volunteers based on income, education, or experience. The RSVP program through its policy of reimbursing the volunteer for out-of-pocket expenses, enables the person who otherwise might not be able to volunteer to do so. Today, ACTION supports 660 RSVP projects. This program operates in all of the conventional volunteer stations throughout Lake County, Ohio, and has, in addition, an intensive recruitment of volunteers for an RSVP School Pilot Program which was developed during its first year of operation. The Lake County program has worked very closely with the Career Education Department of the school.

This manual provides the information for any school guidance director or principal who desires to introduce a volunteer program incorporating elderly persons into a school. (Author
