The concept of "voluntary agency" is being radically but almost imperceptibly revised under the press of events in the world of social welfare organization and finance. The term now embraces traditional nonprofit social agencies, proprietary agencies offering similar services often financed by the public sector, social programs financed by industry for its employees, and the family as a primary service provider. This evolution demands a major reconsideration of the new relationship between government and the voluntary agency.
在社会福利组织和金融领域各种事件的压力下，“志愿机构”的概念正在经历彻底但几乎难以察觉的修正。如今，这个术语涵盖了传统的非营利性社会机构、提供类似服务且通常由公共部门资助的营利性机构、企业为其员工提供资金支持的社会项目，以及作为主要服务提供者的家庭。这种演变要求对政府与志愿机构之间的新关系进行重大重新思考。
