This issue of the International Journal of Volunteer Administration (IJOVA) includes three compelling Feature Articles.  Siordia presents data extracted from the Volunteering Supplement of the Current Population Survey from 2011-15 and shows volunteer rates for specific populations in the U.S.  van Gilst and co-authors present an interesting argument for user testing of volunteer brokerage websites and share insights into the importance of usability of specific websites. Finally, Gallagher presents findings from a study focused on Peace Corps members and their early termination and overall length of service.
