West Virginia Campus Compact AmeriCorps*VISTAs

Three campuses in the West Virginia Campus Compact Higher Education VISTA Consortium are currently recruiting VISTAs to begin service this summer.  The AmeriCorps*VISTA will focus on three main goals during the term of service: (1) To strengthen organizational and/or human capacity on low-income communities by engaging campus volunteers. (2) To assist low income communities and organizations striving to address the causes and impacts of poverty through the acquisition and management of funding resources and creating methods to improve community service quality by campus volunteers at community organizations. (3) To strengthen connections between low-income communities and existing organizations and agencies by working to deepen campus community partnerships with a special focus on partnerships that focus on the economic, health and education or revitalization of communities.
