Activities of a social worker in the volunteer movement. What is a volunteer organization
1.3 Organization volunteer movement in the youth field
Organization and development of youth volunteer movement are possible only on the basis of and taking into account objective information about the interests, needs and motives of potential volunteers.
Volunteers are not only altruists. They work for the sake of gaining experience, special skills and knowledge, establishing personal contacts. Often volunteering is a direct path to paid work, always - to show and prove yourself.
Usually, participation in voluntary work is justified by the feeling of the need to communicate with others, the desire to be needed by someone, a kind of escape from loneliness. For many, it is also self-realization, self-affirmation.
Voluntary labor can also satisfy related interests: getting an education, making acquaintances, acquiring new business contacts. And finally, it can be an initial passion for the proposed activity.
This activity allows a young person, without "breaking" his life, to supplement it with a very significant part - to realize a sense of personal civic responsibility for what is happening.
Volunteering provides an opportunity to gain social experience, receive recommendations for further advancement and career development. Some volunteers eventually begin to realize their copyright social projects.
N. A. Ternova among the motives on the basis of which a person is included in volunteer activities, names the following: the desire to help other people; Meeting new people; obtaining new knowledge and new skills in work; civic feelings; desire to “try” another specialty; compassion for those in need; desire to learn about other people's problems; interest in the proposed new job; group work with friends; a sense of obligation to return to people what he himself received; religious considerations; desire to feel your need; acquisition of new experience; there is no other way to apply the existing work experience; the desire to make new friends, dispel boredom; lack of communication; gaining recognition in society.
The motives for participating in volunteer activities are based on a number of individual needs, which are grouped as follows:
1) the need for recognition people want their work or demonstrated abilities to be highly appreciated by others;
2) the need for achievement people like to feel that they have accomplished something important;
3) the need for self-control - many people want to feel independent, feel that they are responsible for their lives and actions;
4) the need for diversity - people, as a rule, get tired of doing the same thing;
5) the need for growth - people strive to develop, expand and enrich their experience, knowledge and improve their life status;
6) the need for communication - a person's need to belong to a group, to be recognized, loved, to cooperate with another person or group. For these people, it is important to work in a team, to receive group assignments;
7) the need for entertainment - although this may seem frivolous, but the need for entertainment and adventure is very strong, sometimes stronger than all others;
8) the need to be the only one is a human need
feel special and significant.
Based on research on volunteer motivation, some trends can be identified: young people want to get some kind of non-financial benefits, middle-aged people want to work in a well-organized group, and the older generation want to get emotional and psychological comfort.
Thus, in order to attract a young person to participate in volunteer activities, it is necessary to rely on groups of motives related to the usefulness of this activity for future profession using group and communicatively rich forms of work.
To meet the needs of a particular group, a more or less long-term participation in volunteer activities is necessary and sufficient. On this basis, volunteers are allocated for a long time and for short term.
Volunteer motivation for the long term is goal achievement and ownership. The best recognition for him is expressed in providing a greater opportunity to participate in solving the problem. The key point in working with such a volunteer will be joint planning of activities, and the style of relationship is an equal partnership. Characteristic features of a long-term volunteer: devotion to an idea or organization, which allows him to feel a sense of belonging, such a volunteer, as a rule, finds a job himself or “grows” within the organization; seeks to independently determine the schedule and duration of his work, adjusts his time and effort so as to achieve success in solving the problem; he prefers "global" problems.
Volunteer motivation for the short term is recognition of personal achievement, not status in a group. Appreciation to him can be expressed by confirmation of his personal contribution. The key point in working with such a volunteer is to prepare a clear task for him, keeping him confident that the time he donates is aimed at achieving specific results. Characteristic Volunteer for a short period of time A general but not very deep interest in the organization or issue. This is a sympathizer, but not an ally; prefers well-defined work in a limited time frame.
The young person's motives related to learning, gaining experience or possible further employment in the organization create the basis for long-term cooperation.
Youth as the most active social demographic group can become the basis for the development of the volunteer movement in our country. The experience of creating volunteer groups that exist today has become the basis for identifying some of the technological foundations for the development of the volunteer movement among young people.
The youth volunteer movement, as a rule, is organized on the basis of educational institutions (general or vocational education), institutions of the youth sphere (for example, a youth center), youth public associations and organizations.
The technology of creating a volunteer movement can be divided into several stages. The preliminary stage of creating a volunteer group is primarily to determine the goals, content and direction of volunteering.
In the process of working at the preliminary stage, the organizer should ask himself a number of questions and answer them as specifically as possible:
Why do we need volunteers?
What do we want to achieve with their help: to attract other volunteers, to increase the volume and types of services provided, to increase the number of trusted organizations?
Do we have a clear idea of what kind of volunteers are needed?
How many volunteers do you need: 10, 50 or 100 people?
It is advisable to determine for yourself what volunteers will do, what work skills are required from them, where and with whom they will work.
Next, you need to try to describe the work of a volunteer. A clear study of these issues will allow: to determine the types of work and types of responsibility for the activities carried out; to explain in more detail to volunteers the essence of the appeal to them, what contribution they can make to the work of the organization; develop a plan to evaluate the effectiveness of the use of volunteers.
Volunteer programs should be planned and implemented by a leader (may be a volunteer) who is able to constantly interact with staff members organizations, find out their needs and organize the recruitment of volunteers, constantly analyzing it: what can be done in the organization by volunteers, what can be attractive enough for them, etc.
The effect of the work of the head of a volunteer program depends on competent communication with people, understanding their needs and desires, flexibility and the ability to adapt to changing requirements and interests, the ability to reach compromises, the ability to determine the potential of people and create conditions for their implementation.
Responsibilities of a volunteer program manager may include: planning a volunteer recruitment program; job description for each volunteer position; interview, selection and placement of volunteers; orientation and training of volunteers; keeping a daily record of the work of volunteers; dissemination of information about the program to the public; evaluation of the progress of the volunteer program; maintaining relationships with volunteers.
Various methods can be used to attract volunteers, including: public announcements (including in educational institutions); “personal” letters of invitation (sent out on the basis of information bases of institutions, education, youth institutions); visual propaganda; information through the media mass media, Internet, individual conversations, etc.
A key element of an effective appeal is to clearly define the content of the volunteer's work. For a young person, the social significance of the work he performs is very important, so volunteers should not be involved, for example, simply to prepare meals for the poor and the elderly. It is better to involve people in solving the problem of malnourished and lonely elderly, to ensure normal living conditions for the terminally ill.
If volunteers are needed, for example, for office or administrative work, the possibility of these functions for solving the problem as a whole should be emphasized.
The starting point for a volunteer to work is an interview, which is most often conducted by a full-time employee and a specialist. The interviewer should ask: “Do you know the characteristics of the organization, its goals and values?”; “Why did you become interested in this work?”; “What are your expectations related to working in our organization?”; “Have you worked as a volunteer before?”; “How much time can you devote to work?”; “Would you like to take a preparatory training?”; Do you have any special interests or hobbies? “Do you have any experience useful for this job?”; "Do you prefer to work in a team or individually?"
The experience of interviewing prospective volunteers suggests that there are some questions that the volunteer himself may ask during the interview: “What will I do?”; "What time do you want me to work?"; “Hours of operation fixed or variable?”; “Who can I constantly contact?”; “Will there be any training?”; “Do you have a volunteer support group?”; “Will I be able to expand my responsibilities?”; “What happens if I fail?”; “Can I then turn to someone for support?”; “If I get bored with work, will you let me leave without any problems?”
Having received complete answers to these questions, the volunteer can be freed from the fear of becoming dependent on the organization, becoming “obliged”, this allows you to increase the percentage of people involved, so during the interview the interviewer should encourage the potential volunteer to ask as many questions of interest to him as possible (M. Olchman , P. Jordan, 1997).
The main stage in the organization of the volunteer movement is the inclusion of young people in practical volunteer activities. The activities that are offered to potential volunteers can and should be varied, but any of its types must meet an important requirement: to be aimed at solving problems that are close and understandable to the volunteer.
To organize a volunteer group among young people, it is necessary to study their ideas about current social problems and put their solution at the center of volunteering.
The need for communication and recognition of importance in a group, which is one of the urgent needs of young people, makes the group form of volunteer work the most acceptable and effective.
In addition, the work offered to the volunteer must be:
Effective (i.e. have a visible result, not delayed in time);
Clearly localized in time and volume (taking into account the work and educational employment of a young person);
- “live” (not to be routine, “paper” work, often inconsistent with age characteristics youth group).
Volunteering should become a harmonious addition to the main employment, and not a burden imposed from outside. On the other hand, it is bad if a boy or girl abandons their studies for their social activities.
final stage work with a volunteer is his encouragement for the work done. Organizers of the volunteer movement need to consider methods to encourage volunteers. Very often people forget how important it is to encourage those who work for free. Rewards demonstrate how much an organization appreciates people. Volunteers should also feel gratitude for their work.
The most important award is the word "thank you". Creating a favorable atmosphere for work, addressing them by name, devoting free time to them is also a reward. At least once a year, coordinators of the youth volunteer movement should organize a general meeting of volunteers and express gratitude for the results of the work for the year.
At this point, it is very important to remind everyone of the purpose of the activity that volunteers are engaged in. In this way, volunteers can see their place in the whole structure of volunteering. This attitude is especially important in the context of routine work, such as filling out a database. Considering oneself in the context of the values and successes of the movement, the volunteer receives effective motivation.
Other forms of encouraging volunteers include: celebrating Volunteer Day; Happy Birthday; awarding a badge with the logo of the organization; inclusion of the name in the report of the organization; inviting a volunteer to informal meetings; mailing postcards from good wishes; helping volunteers improve their skills.
Moreover, given that the young man is in high competitive environment at the beginning of his professional career, become very important for him Thanksgiving letters places of study or work.
Expressing gratitude will bring the desired results if: express gratitude very often; use different forms of expressing gratitude; to be honest; express satisfaction with the person, not just the job; measure appreciation according to achievement; use the same rewards for the same level of success; pay special attention to those achievements that the volunteer appreciates the most.
It is important to use different forms of encouraging volunteers, for example, not everyone likes to be praised in the presence of a large audience; handing out diplomas or taking interviews.
It is possible to distinguish a number technological stages organization of the volunteer movement and implementation of the volunteer program.
Preliminary stage: collecting information about the motivation, interests and needs of potential volunteers; determining the organization's needs for volunteers; formulating and accepting the authority of the head of the volunteer program.
The initial stage - conducting an interview, drafting
job descriptions, appointment of individual supervisors for volunteers.
The main stage is the execution of the work.
The final stage is the assessment of the effectiveness of the work done, the encouragement of volunteers, and the planning of further activities.
The effectiveness of the implementation of this technology largely depends on: the degree of clarity of ideas about future activities among the organizers and volunteers; on the degree of effectiveness of the interaction between volunteers and staff members; on the qualitative characteristics of the proposed work and taking into account the individual interests, needs and abilities of the volunteer; from forms of encouraging volunteers.
Thus, a number of conditions are necessary for the development of the youth volunteer movement:
2 CHAPTER. ORGANIZATION OF SOCIO - PEDAGOGICAL WORK ON THE PREVENTION OF A HEALTHY LIFESTYLE
2.1 Organization of the study
The purpose of the study: the organization of volunteer movement in a secondary school
Research stages:
1. Preparatory
Selection of diagnostic tools
Develop a program "We are for a healthy lifestyle" (Appendix 4)
2. Main
Carrying out a methodology for diagnosing a tendency to deviant behavior
Develop a regulation on a volunteer detachment (Appendix 5)
Implementation of the program "We are for a healthy lifestyle"
3. Final
Processing and analysis of the results, writing conclusions.
Sample: 13 people, ages 14 to 16
Gender: 7 boys, 6 girls.
Research base: MOU "Demyanovskaya basic comprehensive school" of the Babushkinsky district
Diagnostic tools:
Methodology for diagnosing a tendency to deviant behavior
A universal method for identifying a predisposition to certain deviations in the behavior of adolescents is the "Method for diagnosing a tendency to deviant behavior" (developed by the Vologda Center for Humanitarian Research and Counseling). It contains seven scales:
1. The scale of installation on social desirability - 15 points.
2. Scale of propensity for social desirability - 17 points.
3. Scale of propensity to addictive behavior - 20 points.
4. Scale of tendency to self-injurious and self-destructive behavior - 21 points.
5. Scale of tendency to aggression and violence - 25 points.
6. Scale of volitional control of emotional reactions - 15 points.
7. Scale of propensity to delinquent behavior - 20 points.
In general, the questionnaire includes 98 non-repeating items-statements (the variant for males is given below).
At the preparatory stage, we developed the program "We are for a healthy lifestyle"
The goal of the program: to create a comprehensive system of primary prevention of all types of addiction and propaganda healthy lifestyle life.
Program objectives:
ü prevention of the use of psychoactive substances and asocial phenomena among adolescents;
Expected results:
Forms of work:
During the implementation of the program, the following forms of work were used: trainings, lectures, discussions, conversations.
2.2 Analysis of results and conclusions
In the course of the study, we implemented three stages: ascertaining, forming and control.
At the ascertaining stage, we conducted a method of propensity for deviant behavior among adolescents in order to identify a predisposition to certain deviations in behavior and obtained the following results:
1. The group with which the study was conducted has a pronounced tendency to self-injurious and self-destructive behavior.
2. The tendency to aggression and violence is above the hole.
3. The results on each scale should be noted: the first scale of the attitude towards social desirability is normal, which means that the diagnostic results can be trusted.
The scale of the tendency to overcome norms and rules is not expressed, the tendency to addictive behavior is at a low level, the volitional control of emotional reactions is poorly expressed, and the tendency to delinquent behavior is not expressed.
At the second stage, we implemented the program "We are for a healthy lifestyle." The program involved 13 people, 7 boys and 6 girls aged 13 to 16 years.
The goal of the program is to create a comprehensive system of primary prevention of all types of addiction and promotion of a healthy lifestyle. The time spent on classes is about 10 hours.
The theme of the classes was aimed at maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
For 8 weeks, a volunteer detachment created on the basis of the school helped us in the implementation of the program.
The volunteer team included a social teacher and three 9th grade students. We assume that the volunteer movement created by us will actively work in this direction.
After the implementation of the program, we approached the third stage - this is the control stage, during which we repeated the method of propensity to deviant behavior and obtained the following results.
Based on the data of a repeated diagnostic study, it can be concluded that the group with which the study was conducted prone to deviant behavior is normal. (Appendix 3).
The dynamics of changes in the propensity to deviant behavior can be seen in Figure 1.
Fig.1 Dynamics of changes in the results of the SOP methodology
Having processed the results on the scales, we entered all the results obtained into pivot tables and calculated the average indicators
Thus, at the ascertaining stage of the study, the indicators on the scales exceeded the norm, that is, adolescents showed a tendency to certain types of deviation, the results at the control stage of the study became normal.
Having processed and analyzed the results of the study, we can draw the following conclusions:
1. Comparing the results of the ascertaining and control experiment, we found out that the indicators decreased to the limits of the norm.
2. We see the reason for such positive changes in the work of the volunteer group, which leads to the formation of an active life position of adolescents.
3. The hypothesis of the study was partially confirmed.
Conclusion
Volunteering is widespread in all countries of the world. Moreover, the work of volunteers is becoming an increasingly significant resource of the global economy every year.
On the basis of the studied material, we can draw the following conclusions, firstly, that volunteer activity belongs to the non-professional level of social work.
Secondly, volunteers are volunteers who carry out socially significant activities of their own free will, through personal contribution and offer their help free of charge.
Thirdly, a number of conditions are necessary for the development of the youth volunteer movement:
The presence of a group of like-minded people who act as initiators and coordinators of volunteer activities;
The presence of an institutional "affiliation" of the volunteer movement (institutions, organizations that support volunteer activities);
Accounting for the specifics of the motivational structure of the youth group in relation to participation in volunteer activities;
The desire to avoid the administration and bureaucratization of the volunteer movement;
Ensuring a favorable moral climate, prestige, creating a "fashion" for the volunteer movement among the youth (this is possible, first of all, among educational institutions);
Using meaningful activities for young people as a basis for volunteering;
Using volunteering as a way to improve the social status of a young person.
Volunteering contributes to changing the worldview of the people themselves and those who are nearby, and benefits both the state and the volunteers themselves, who through volunteering develop their skills and abilities, satisfy the need for communication and self-esteem, realize their usefulness and need, receive gratitude for their work, develop important personal qualities, in fact, follow their moral principles and discover a more spiritual side of life.
We conducted the study on the basis of the municipal educational institution "Demyanovskaya basic comprehensive school" of the Babushkinsky district. To confirm our hypothesis, we developed and implemented a program for the prevention of a healthy lifestyle.
We believe that the work of a volunteer team in an educational institution can influence the formation of an active life position of adolescents and the maintenance of a healthy lifestyle.
The program and regulations are of practical importance, as they can be used by leaders of volunteer groups, volunteers, social educators and teachers in modern schools.

Keys and procedures for calculating test scores:
Each answer according to the key is assigned one point. Then, for each scale, the total score is calculated, which is compared with the test norms given below. If the individual results of the subject deviate from the average total score on the scale (see test norms) by more than 18, the measured psychological characteristic can be read as pronounced. If the individual total score of the subject is less than the average according to the test norms by 18, then the measured property can be assessed as poorly expressed.

Modern Russia bears a load of problems in the social sphere, which requires its resolution. It is in the area social policy highly qualified social work specialists are needed, however, due to the rather young “age” of the profession in Russia, there are not enough such specialists in this area. Volunteering is a good way out. From the economic point of view, this is quite inexpensive for the state, since volunteer work is voluntary, i.e. unpaid, but in social terms - this is a great benefit and assistance by qualified social workers, social service specialists, as well as a large coverage of social problems. For volunteers studying in the specialty social work, and not only - this is a great chance to get work experience, an idea of the profession and do a good deed.
Another smart move in the development of social policy was the involvement of students of various specialties in the development of volunteer activities in Russia. Volunteer detachments, organizations and movements arise and develop among student youth. Due to their age and psychological characteristics, the younger generation gravitates toward a variety of activities and is mobile in relation to new professions. The active position of students, which has a socializing effect on the subject of activity and is carried out without any coercion, is the basis for the development of youth volunteering in our country.
The issue of the potential for the development of youth volunteering can be considered in at least two aspects: the impact of youth volunteering on the specific historical situation that is developing in society; the impact of volunteering on the personality of a young person who has become involved in charitable activities.
Per last years created in our country a large number of ghostly myths about youth, on the one hand, idealizing modern youth, and on the other hand, which negatively assess the life and behavior of the younger generation as a whole. But to assume the present and future processes, it is necessary to know the real state of affairs in the society of young people, an in-depth study of the interests and life plans, motivations, value orientations and real behavior of young people, taking into account all the specific historical and social conditions in which they are brought up at the moment.
The youth at all times differed from other age groups in their desire to be always at the peak of fashion. This fact has a positive effect on the involvement of young people in volunteer initiatives. It doesn't matter if it's fashion in clothes, culinary passions, or leisure activities. Indeed, at the moment, when volunteering in our country is only developing, to spread the image that young people will be drawn to. There is no exact ideal to strive for. An important side of this problem is the image and perception of the organization offering a place for a volunteer.
At a turning point in the development of society, when life is extremely dynamic, it is important to consolidate and understand the values that guide young people and which largely determine everyday consciousness and everyday ideas about the present and future of the generations entering life.
One of the dominant trends is the differentiation of young people. Its stratification according to socio-economic characteristics is increasing. Adaptability and vitality of young people differ not only by categories and social groups, but also by regions of Russia.
However, not all segments of the Russian population were able to exercise their rights and to be socially active. This applies not only and not so much to the older generations, but even more so to the current generations of young people, as evidenced by the data of many opinion polls. Under these conditions, a viable generation of young people should have a set of qualities that ensure their survival, adaptation to new socio-economic conditions, allowing them to purposefully transform the surrounding reality.
The organization and formation of a youth volunteer movement can only be carried out on the basis of objective information about the interests, needs and goals of potential volunteers. Volunteers are not only altruists. Young people work to gain experience, special skills and knowledge, and to establish personal contacts. Often volunteering is an open path to gainful employment, there is always an opportunity to prove yourself. Usually, participation in voluntary work is justified by the need to communicate with others, the desire to help the needy and be needed by someone. Voluntary labor satisfies such interests as getting an education, making important acquaintances, acquiring new business contacts.
The situation that has formed in the field of development of the younger generation is ambiguous. Modern youth is distinguished by a high growth of independence, a sharp increase in interest in obtaining a quality education and vocational training which will affect further employment and career development.
On the other hand, young people are characterized by a low level of interest and participation in the events of political, economic and cultural life. The acuteness of the problem of social integration of young people with disabilities, orphans, adolescents from dysfunctional families does not subside.
The study of young people's value orientations makes it possible not only to determine the spiritual sources of the development of society that keep it from self-destruction, but also to determine whether it is moving in the direction of socio-cultural modernization or the transmission of values traditional for Russia.
The value structure of the consciousness of the young generation, which is an element of social consciousness, is unusually complex, and its various components assist in accelerating social processes, as well as in the conservation of socially important stable states of society.
Over a long period of study of the value orientations of society or its specific groups, a fairly large number of definitions of this important concept of sociology have been formulated.
The system of value orientations is divided into three groups:
1) Material and economic value orientations.
The preference for one or the other group is determined by the economic status of a person, his adaptation to a particular social group. If this social group is the object of guardianship by the state and therefore she needs his special support, she is very interested in public administration economy and in the development of the public sector of the economy. This particular group, which is the object of the economically dependent element of society, is fighting for a socially oriented economy. Youth is just such a social group.
2) Spiritual and humanitarian value orientations are usually divided into individually oriented or ethical and collectively oriented or political value orientations.
Ethical value orientations in the context of youth transitivity are distributed according to vertical axis"practicalism - spirituality" and the horizontal axis "collectivism - individualism".
The practicality of the ethical orientations of young people is associated with various factors, both negative and positive, which determine the direction of development of modern youth culture. The so-called "fall in morals" or the loss of spiritual ideals became the basis for the formation of worldview attitudes. They have a decisive influence on the self-identification of young people.
3) Rational - value orientations are based on rational definition and limiting value objects as meanings. Rational - value orientations are determined by the subject himself as immanent concepts and objects in the form of products of spontaneous activity of imagination and thinking, however, they are unthinkable without their expression outside.
Considering the experience of organizing volunteer activities, L.E. Sikorskaya highlights socially significant motives.
The first group of motives is self-realization of personal potential. For young people who are engaged in volunteer activities, the most significant role is given to the possibility of realizing their potential, the manifestation of their hidden abilities and opportunities in significant social and public activities. Volunteer work also helps a young person get a real idea of a possible future profession or choose its direction. Volunteering helps to gain indispensable experience, which is also necessary in everyday life. The motives associated with receiving recommendations for employment in a paid job are also very strong. Often this is due to the fact that employers prefer applicants who already have some work experience.
Active participation in volunteer activities will contribute to the development of such social skills as:
1. experience of responsible interaction;
2. development of communication skills;
3. self-organization;
4. performing discipline;
5. leadership skills;
6. protection and upholding of rights and interests;
7. initiative;
8. professional orientation;
9. communication with like-minded people and many others.
The second group of motives is public recognition and a sense of social significance. It is essential for everyone to get positive feedback about his activities from people who are higher in the hierarchy or important specifically to him, in order to assert himself, to feel his own involvement in a socially useful cause. At the heart of this motivation is the human need for high self-esteem and positive evaluation from other people. This assessment plays an important role for a person when choosing the goals and objectives of his activity, the direction of personal growth.
Fulfillment of public duty. Social service is a natural human need, its destiny. This need is a consequence of the awareness of religious and ethical duty and indicates a high personal development.
Possibility of communication, interaction with like-minded people. Volunteering allows you to find an interesting social circle for yourself and get support in friendly interaction. Among the younger generation, especially when they find themselves in an unusual environment, for example, in another city and another educational institution, the need to expand the circle of communication is very common. When a person enters a particular community, in order to get used to the group, he begins to pursue the motives characteristic of this community. When a new volunteer appears in an organization, it is imperative to establish and identify the motives that led him to volunteer work, so that the person strives to remain in the team and wants to become its permanent member.
Gaining experience in leadership and social interaction. Volunteering, community work gives a young person the opportunity to express themselves in different types social interaction, to acquire the skills that he will need in later life for responsible leadership and performance. The need to acquire interaction experience is a conscious social need. For the younger generation, the main need is being in demand by society, its socialization. A significant place is occupied by the motives for satisfying the need for communication, and especially in communication with equals.
Organization of free time. An essential motive for participating in volunteer activities is the possibility of organizing personal free time for the benefit of the common cause and for the soul. However, it should not be the leading motive, although if there are other motives, it can be an effective incentive to participate in social, voluntary activities.
The last group of motives is defined by the author as self-determination and self-expression. Volunteer work gives a chance to prove oneself, communicate one's position in life, helps a person to express his inner "I" and establish himself in life values. One aspect of self-expression is altruism. Altruism is very common in volunteer work. Altruism involves, first of all, disinterested concern for the well-being of others.
The ability to express one's civic position. The opportunity to express one's civic position not just through the declaration of one's own views, but through vigorous activity, which is aimed at protecting one's own values, is the most important condition for the socialization and personal development of a young person. Volunteering is the fulfillment of our personal qualities, which quite often remain undiscovered in our daily lives. Being included in the system of various types of activity, a person not only improves them every day, but also improves himself. In other words, the volunteer movement experiences its serious effects: organizational, target, value-semantic, informational and methodological foundations / E.V. Martynova, E.G. Popov. - Yekaterinburg: GOU VPO "UGTU-UPI", 2004.-С111.. Volunteering is no exception. With the constant interaction of a person with the outside world, the psychological effect takes place, which is expressed in a change in personal qualities, motivational and cognitive spheres, including value orientations, interests and character traits.
If the motives of new participants in volunteering at the initial stage are rather individual or focused on a group, then upon receiving the first experience, they become more and more broadly social and directed at others, even strangers. It is the nature of socially significant activity in adolescence that forms the worldview of a young person, his attitude towards himself and other people, towards work. In joint activities, which are socially significant, responsible behavior develops, as well as tolerance and self-control in various life situations, the ability to plan one's activities and analyze its results.
In order to attract a young person to participate in volunteer activities, it is necessary to rely on groups of motives related to the usefulness of this activity for the future profession, while using group forms of work that can develop communication skills.
Volunteers can be recruited in a variety of ways, including: publishing announcements, which include information through information booths; visual propaganda, as bright booklets; informing through social networks and Internet sources, etc.
At the present stage of development of volunteer movements, the use of social networks and other popular sites is one of the most powerful ways to attract new volunteers. Exactly at in social networks you can post the necessary information, photos from various projects. All this helps a young person to make a choice in favor of a certain volunteer movement.
The youth movement is now developing on the basis of a variety of activities that are useful both for society and for the personality of a young person: protection environment, charity, sports, participation in public events held on the initiative of municipal structures. It is possible to help remotely. In the 21st century, it is very popular to use in-demand knowledge in information technology. A young man who has necessary knowledge v graphic design or in the creation of sites can also offer their own charitable assistance, which will help systematize the information work of various volunteer organizations, a young volunteer will have the opportunity to start creating a portfolio of their work and do a good deed.
It is necessary to pay attention to the fact that the image of a volunteer from the modern young generation plays an important role. Very often, volunteers work with completely different people who should not be provoked by their appearance. Employers often refuse jobs to people who have popular means among young people to express themselves and demonstrate their attitude to a particular subculture. In certain cases, this appearance of a young volunteer is advantageous. The bright half of the youth is the bearer of a subculture and this implies the presence of defining attributes (t-shirts, bracelets, tattoos, piercings) - they cannot be limited in their choice, forbidden to wear what they feel confident in, because a volunteer is not an employee, this is a person, giving a piece of himself and it is much more comfortable for him to do business, I feel comfortable and protected.
These moments are highlighted as the most important, because they make the first impression. Volunteering is not a job, a young person should and can look the way he positions himself, feel most comfortable with his appearance, but at the same time not violate the norms of the direction of voluntary work in which he wants to prove himself.
For a young person, the social significance of the work he performs is fundamental, so volunteers should not be involved, for example, simply to prepare meals for the poor and the elderly. It will be more effective to indicate the problem with which the volunteer will have to work. For example, to involve a person in solving the problem of malnourished and lonely elderly, to ensure normal living conditions for the terminally ill. It should be emphasized for volunteers the possibilities of solving the problem.
The next stage in the organization of the volunteer movement and the main one is the inclusion of young people in practical volunteer activities. The activities that can be offered to future volunteers should be varied, but the goal should meet an important requirement: be aimed at solving problems that are understandable to the young volunteer.
To create a volunteer organization among young people, it is worth studying their ideas about modern social problems that are relevant at the moment and putting the solution of identified problems at the center of volunteering.
The need for communication and recognition of significance in a group, which is considered one of the urgent needs of young people, makes the group form of volunteer work the most acceptable and effective.
In addition, the work provided to the volunteer must be:
Effective (i.e. have a visible result, not delayed in time);
Clearly localized in time and volume (taking into account the work and educational employment of a young person);
- “live” (not to be routine, “paper” work, often inconsistent with the age characteristics of the youth group).
Volunteering should be a harmonious addition to the main employment and is not an imposed burden. The image of volunteering will be negatively affected if a boy or girl abandons their studies for their social activities.
The last stage of work with a volunteer is his encouragement for the work done. Organizers of the volunteer movement should weigh the positive and negative aspects of methods to encourage volunteers. People who are in charge of an organization or a small movement forget how important it is to encourage those who work for free. Rewards demonstrate how much an organization appreciates people.
One of the important awards is the word "thank you". At least once a year, coordinators of the youth volunteer movement should organize a general meeting of volunteers and express gratitude for the results of the work for the year. A favorable atmosphere created for good deeds, addressing volunteers by name, devoting free time to them is also a reward.
An important element general meetings is a reminder to everyone about the purpose of the activities that volunteers are engaged in in this organization. In this way, volunteers can see their place in the whole structure of volunteering. Considering oneself in the context of the values and successes of the movement, the volunteer receives effective motivation and motivation to attract acquaintances and friends to volunteer activities.
There are other ways to encourage volunteers: celebrating Volunteer Day; Happy Birthday; awarding a badge with the logo of the organization; inclusion of the name in the report of the organization; inviting the volunteer and his friends to informal meetings; helping volunteers improve their skills.
In addition, given that most young people are in a competitive environment at the start of their professional career, letters of thanks to places of study or work will not be superfluous.
Expressing gratitude will bring the desired results if: express gratitude professionally and often; use different forms of expressing gratitude; to be honest; express satisfaction with the person, not just the job; pay special attention to those achievements that the volunteer himself appreciates the most.
Therefore, for the development of the volunteer movement among the youth, a number of conditions must be met:
The presence of a group of like-minded people who act as initiators and coordinators of volunteer activities, are engaged in management;
The presence of an institutional "affiliation" of the volunteer movement (institutions, organizations that support volunteer activities);
Taking into account the specifics of the motivational structure of the youth group in relation to participation in volunteer activities;
The desire to avoid the bureaucratization of the volunteer movement;
Ensuring a comfortable moral climate, creating popularity for the volunteer movement among the youth (this is possible, first of all, among educational institutions);
Using meaningful activities for young people as a basis for volunteering;
Using volunteering as a way to improve the social status of a young person.
Volunteering has a positive impact on changing the worldview of the people themselves and those who are nearby, and benefits both the state and the volunteers themselves. Young people through volunteering are able to develop their skills and abilities up to high level, are also able to satisfy the need for communication and self-respect, realize their usefulness and need for society, develop important personal qualities in themselves, in fact follow their moral principles and reveal the spiritual side of their lives.
Political, socio-economic changes taking place in society today dictate new requirements for the organization of the educational process. A student every day must make a choice, resist the temptations of life, maintain health and defend his position in life, based on knowledge and his own experience. Russia has accumulated extensive experience in the socialization of students. Pioneer squads and Komsomol activists, Timurovites and young pathfinders are by no means a complete list of various forms aimed at shaping and developing the social and, mainly, political views of students. But they were deprived of one thing, and the most important thing - own desire and choices.
The volunteer movement is a new form of involving adolescents in social activity, designed to promote the formation and improvement of the political and social competence of the younger generation. Volunteers (from English. volunteer- volunteer) - these are people who do something of their own free will, by consent, and not under duress.
Volunteer or voluntary organizations are free unions of people united by some common special interest. Their activity is connected, as a rule, with charity, mercy. Volunteers promote a healthy lifestyle. The volunteer movement is now developing quite rapidly. And one of the main reasons for this is voluntariness and freedom of choice. In addition, the formation of competence is possible only in unity with human values, i.e. with a deep personal interest of a person in this type of activity.
Due to prevailing social stereotypes volunteer activities in Russia it does not take root well and does not enjoy the approval of the majority of the population. The tasks of modern public and charitable organizations include the popularization of volunteerism, the promotion of volunteering ideas and the creation of a positive image of a volunteer.
In the Russian Federation, it is possible to talk about the volunteer movement as a phenomenon, only considering that all volunteers are guided in their activities by one general principle of helping people. A volunteer association has been operating in Russia since 1998 World4U, which is engaged in youth and student exchange programs and providing air tickets for young people, students, graduate students and teachers.
