The call for applications for the Canada’s Volunteer Awards (CVA) National Advisory Committee (NAC) is now live. You have until October 23, 2024 to apply.

Members of the National Advisory Committee play a leading role in the selection of Canada’s Volunteer Awards recipients by reviewing nominations and making recommendations to the Minister of Families, Children and Social Development. They also support the promotion of the program throughout their term.

The committee consists of up to 15 members from across Canada who are passionate about volunteering. Members are selected based on their knowledge and experience working or volunteering in support of community development. Additionally, members reflect Canada’s diversity and serve for a term of three years.

CVA is accepting applications until October 23, 2024. If you want to learn more about the opportunity to become a National Advisory Committee member or to apply, please visit our web page.
