Volunteer Information

NIRSA 2022 Portland

Volunteers like you help to make the conference better every year!

The NIRSA Annual Conference and Campus Rec & Wellness Expo is enriched in no small part through the generous contributions of the time and talent of our amazing membership. The benefits of volunteering are familiar to returning volunteers; however, those who’ve never offered their service at the NIRSA Annual Conference might be surprised to learn that their own conference experience will be enhanced alongside those of the people they serve.
