National service agency adds capacity to organizations which lift people and communities out of poverty
The AmeriCorps VISTA program currently serves in all 50 states, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico and US Virgin Islands, supporting activities such as fundraising, grant writing, research and volunteer recruitment. AmeriCorps members in the VISTA program serve in an office setting and gain experience and leadership skills that prepares members for a life of service in the public, private or nonprofit sector.
“AmeriCorps VISTA addresses the unequal effects of poverty at the local level,” said Michael D. Smith, AmeriCorps CEO. “These new and continued partnerships will empower an entire ecosystem of volunteer coordination efforts which will expand each sponsor organization’s capacity to effect change by growing their recruitment and community outreach efforts.”
