What are the benefits of membership?

Member Program staff, Member Campus staff, and Member Individuals gain access to CVN’s Slack workspace, a forum for supporters of faith-based service. All CVN members also benefit from the knowledge that they are contributing to a legacy of more than 60 years of faith-based service through the Catholic Volunteer Network.

In addition to these benefits, there are also membership-specific benefits for different membership types. To learn more about the specifics of each membership type, please navigate to Become a Member.

How do I access my member benefits?

To edit your program information, you must log in to the For Members Portal for your account type.

If you only intend to access member benefits, then you may also access them directly in our Slack workspace, through the “For Members Portal” Slack app. To install the app, log in to CVN’s Slack workspace on your desktop or laptop computer, then navigate to “Tools” -> “Applications” in the Slack dashboard. The “For Members Portal” app will appear in a list of applications available to install.

Account Types

There are two types of accounts that you can set up with CVN: Personal accounts, and Admin accounts.

Personal Accounts

Every person who has a CVN login has a Personal account; your connection with this account endures across your lifetime as a volunteer, donor, and/or staff member. .

Admin Accounts

If you are a staff member of a volunteer program, campus, or other organization, then you may also have access to the login credentials for an Admin account. Each organization with active CVN membership has its own Admin account for the whole organization. An Admin account is necessary to edit information that is displayed on the CVN website.

Sub-Memberships

If you are a staff member of an organization with active CVN membership, then you can be affiliated with that organization as a sub-member. Sub-members can access benefits of membership available to their organization, such as rental car service discounts and special access to members-only Spaces in the Slack workspace.

Sub-memberships can be assigned when your organization is registered for CVN membership. If you want to add or remove sub-members affiliated with your organization, please submit your request to the IT Services Manager at [email protected].

Admin Login Credentials

In order to upload Response directory data, job listings, urgent opportunities, and events for display on the CVN website, you must log in with credentials for your organization’s Admin account. These login credentials should only be shared with members of your organization that you trust to act as the organization’s representative to the public. You should always log out of your Admin account when you are finished editing your Organization account information.

Login Troubleshooting

If you don’t know your login credentials, request your password by reset your password by entering your email address.

If problems persist after logging out of your account and logging back in, log out and try deleting the cookies and clearing the cache of your browser. Instructions on how to do so can be found for browsers such as ChromeEdge, and Safari.
