1992 Susan Ellis Keynote Speech, 1992 New York Conference for Leaders of Volunteers

In this speech Ellis clearly describes how the image and vocabulary related to volunteering has changed historically -- and is still changing in the 1990's. Sprinkled with bits of humor and her signature provocative style, the overarching points articulated by Ellis are still relevant to our field in the 21st century.
