NC Growing Household Income VISTA
 
 
 
The Collaborative is statewide nonprofit working to ensure that all North Carolinians have access to financial education and asset building tools, with an emphasis on communities of color and people with disabilities. We have VISTA sites with openings in Asheville, Chapel Hill, Raleigh, Greensboro, Winston-Salem, and opportunities to build systems statewide that affect rural communities. The goal of this project is to build the capacity of our host sites to support low-income community members and students to maximize/increase their income, through employment, microenterprise, and financial education. Communities benefit over the long-term from residents who are more financially secure, are better able to engage in community life, who contribute to and support the local economy, and have a strong understanding of how to manage money. We seek individuals who work collaboratively and independently, take initiative and responsibility for their assigned tasks, have a positive attitude, demonstrate an interest in learning, and are committed to anti-poverty efforts. We require a Bachelor’s degree and offer a variety of benefits.
