Description

The Committee on Temporary Shelter (COTS) provides emergency shelter, support services, prevention assistance, and housing for people who are homeless or marginally housed in Vermont. The VISTA member will create communication and marketing templates related to our organization and mission of ending homelessness. These would provide outreach to people facing the crisis of homelessness in order to connect them with supportive services and community
resources and help educate the public about the facts, outcomes, and many facets of the crisis of homelessness. This is a great position for someone with graphic design skills!


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.
