are there any rights for volunteers who are expelled from organization after making a report to a state agency?

You're going to need to give me more to go on than that.

I sent you a PM

Why wouldn't volunteers have the exact same protections/rights as a paid employee when they do the exact job and follow the same requirements mandated by the state for the job/volunteer position? These are volunteers covered by workmens comp, local tax reductions (property tax), malpractice insurance-provided by the agency for the volunteers. Whistle blower rights are not covered and in Massachusettes you cannot claim sexual harrassment? This is one item I found when I googled-Volunteers serving with a public entity have First Amendment Right to speak out on a public issue-Wonder v Hyland, CA9, 127 F3 1135

Who said they didn't?

I suggested in my response to the PM that you contact the EEOC.
