Description
In the heart of the Green Mountains, Alliance for Community Transformations (ACT) strives to inspire, mobilize, and empower the community to act in collaboration and prevent youth substance use. The VISTA will build capacity for ACT through resource development and public relations. The ideal candidate will be a strong writer, an interest in youth development, have a flair for social media (especially Facebook), and enjoy meeting new people.
The SerVermont VISTA Program is a comprehensive umbrella project that welcomes host sites tackling a wide array of poverty related issues in Vermont. We place members in organizations and state agencies to fight poverty across the state by increasing education and job-training opportunities, fighting the opioid epidemic creating more food-secure communities, increasing safe and affordable housing, and serving veterans and military families. Our VISTAs build and strengthen systems in order to increase their sites capacity to provide these services to those who need them most.
