Service-Learning in Community-Based Organizations: A Practical Guide to Starting and Sustaining High-Quality Programs

This guide is a first effort to apply the 2008 quality standards for service-learning in a practical guide for community-based organizations. It provides practitioners of community-based service-learning with tips, tools, and techniques they need to start making a positive difference in many people's lives by providing high-quality opportunities for youth to serve and learn. It addresses questions such as, "What is service-learning?", "What is effective?", "How do I do it?" and "What other tools are available?" Worksheets that support all phases of service-learning are also provided.
