The Impact of Touchpoints on Volunteer Recruitment (New York Metro)
Overview
Revitalize your leadership development efforts to build a strong volunteer pipeline.
If your chapter faces a shortage of volunteers ready and willing to step up to leadership positions, you are not alone. Before the pandemic hit, the New York Metro chapter was challenged with a shallow leadership pool due to a dwindling pipeline of volunteers in line to serve on their board. The problem was exacerbated during COVID, when the lack of in-person networking events made it even more difficult to engage volunteers and identify potential leaders. Hear how they developed a plan to ensure the ongoing strength of their volunteer pipeline through engaging virtual events, an inclusive structure, leveraging National Volunteer Week, and targeted outreach and communications.

Creating a Culture of Belonging: A Chapter’s Focus on Diversity & Inclusion (New York Metro)
Overview
Global events make an indelible impact on the New York Metro Chapter. The story of their journey towards addressing inclusivity in their design community is only just beginning.
In the wake of George Floyd’s murder in May 2020, ASID NY Metro chapter took a moment to listen, reflect and take inventory of their participation in the issue of racism within the design industry, within the chapter. From this was born the first Diversity and Inclusion Committee within the ASID community. Join us, the ASID NY Metro D&I Committee, as we share our story, what we’ve learned so far and how we would like to empower all the chapters to work towards change too.

Power in Numbers: Building Your Chapter Advocacy Program (Ohio South Kentucky)
Overview
Build an effective chapter advocacy program to influence policy and strengthen the profession.
Advocacy can be a scary concept, but it is a critical part of expanding the presence of the interior design profession at community, state, and national levels. It’s also crucial to every day practice. Whether designers are taxed, can own a multidisciplinary firm, can use certain products…or not! All these (and more) start with ASID chapter advocacy! A strong advocacy program is an essential part of any successful Chapter. Join us for a candid conversation about the process, tools and resources that can help build your chapter’s advocacy prowess and prepare fearlessly for the inevitable. We’ll engage Chapters from around the country in a frank discussion to learn how to plan, budget, and engage your entire organization in the advocacy process, whether starting from scratch or reinvigorating an existing effort.

Teams Work! Engaging Your Members Through Committees (Illinois)
Overview
Leverage the power of your community through committees.
There was an “aha moment” when the Illinois chapter board found themselves burnt out from doing all the work of the chapter, including events' management. Of course the board will end up doing all the work if they don’t provide other volunteers with “on ramps” to get involved and take on new responsibilities. This epiphany led to the creation of a more effective chapter committee structure, incorporating new systems for operations and accountability to form nineteen active committees. Learn how your chapter can strengthen its committee structure to more effectively delegate the work of the chapter and build your volunteer leadership pipeline in the process.
