At CRCPD, we could not accomplish the many things we are doing nationally and internationally without the many volunteers in our organization and the thousands of hours they contribute each year on committees, task forces, and the Board. Kudos to all of you for all that you do!

Volunteer Recognition Day is observed every year on April 20. As the name suggests, it is a day to honor, recognize and celebrate the selfless individuals who volunteer their time and energy to help others and promote good causes.
