Abstract:

A large body of quantitative evidence demonstrates a link between volunteering and improved well-being, especially among older adults. Yet the research evidence pointing to the purported benefits of volunteering does not adequately address the unique experiences of older volunteers, nor does it address the ways in which working with them impacts the work of volunteer administrators. As the proportion of those aged 65 and older increases, older adults are poised to play an even greater role as volunteers than ever before, representing both unparalleled opportunity and potential new challenges f

ABSTRACT During a disaster, unsolicited health care volunteers pose significant legal, medical, logistical and safety concerns. Coordination and deployment of qualified health care volunteers also has been a major challenge to emergency managers. In response to these concerns the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) encouraged each state to develop an Emergency System for the Advanced Registration of Volunteer Health Professionals (ESAR-VHP). The successful development of California's ESAR-VHP programs required significant planning to address challenges such as license verificat

Success of the 4-H Youth Development (4-H) program relies heavily on the recruitment and retention of volunteers who implement 4-H programs. 4-H volunteers—in turn—rely on program professionals to continually improve the education and support systems they need to succeed. In this study, the researchers used a mixed-methods survey based on the 4-H Volunteer Research and Knowledge Competency (VRKC) taxonomy across the Washington State 4-H program to uncover (a) what education volunteers want for themselves and their county program, (b) what challenges they face in their role, and (c) what they n

Abstract:

Introduction: A recent study has shown that acetate administration leads to a fourfold increase in the transcription of proopiomelanocortin (POMC) mRNA in the hypothalamus. POMC is cleaved to peptides, including β-endorphin, an endogenous opioid (EO) agonist that binds preferentially to the µ-opioid receptor (MOR). We hypothesised that an acetate challenge would increase the levels of EO in the human brain. We have previously demonstrated that increased EO release in the human brain can be detected using positron emission tomography (PET) with the selective MOR radioligand [11C]carfentanil. We

Abstract:

Fire protection is one of the cornerstones of societal safety and awareness of its importance dates back to Ancient times. The first fire brigades in the region were founded during the 19th century, despite the challenges of establishing such societies in the former territory of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. The government feared such associations might foster nationalistic sentiments. Nevertheless, the flat terrain of today Vojvodina, then under Monarchy administration, required adequate protection due to the frequent fires that spread rapidly due to the absence of obstacles.

This study investigates a community partnership approach between public libraries and seniors’ organizations for older adult digital literacy training. The paper showcases a partnership between a volunteer seniors' organization, two public libraries, and a seniors' centre. Semi-structured interviews with administrators, instructors, and students were analyzed via qualitative thematic analysis techniques. Findings reveal many benefits (e.g., the leveraging of shared resources and tasks; better understanding of seniors’ training needs; better tailoring of the training to meet those needs) and ch

But unlike previous wars, less than 1% of our population serves their country in an all-volunteer military. This small percentage of Americans who volunteer to serve us and protect our freedoms (n

This article examines the origins of the National Parent-Teacher Association and questions its current image as a white, middle-class women's association. Founded as the National Congress of Mothers in 1897, the association was wedded to late-nineteenth century maternalist ideology that held that all women were united across race, class, and religion in their particular obligation to ensure the proper rearing of all children. The author considers this maternalism and its role in the development of the organization. First, she argues that the emphasis on woman-as-mother allowed for the rapid ex

However, transportation is a significant challenge for older adults who need alternative forms of transportation, including those who do not drive or lack access to a vehicle. Fixed route transportation is limited in rural communities and may not meet the needs of older adults, particularly those who require assistance. Transportation barriers affect older adults’ health, mobility, independence, and quality of life. Recognizing these challenges, the Health Resources and Services Administrat
