Campus Compact VISTA UNO - Volunteer and Communty Impact

The Campus Compact AmeriCorps VISTA program places AmeriCorps VISTA members in full service with our campus and community partners for a one-year period. During this year, members spend 35 hours per week on their host site’s campus or with one of that campus’s community partners to work on building systems and programs that support low-income college students and community members. The VISTA member’s work is to build capacity, meaning that rather than directly serving the community, they’re enhancing or creating systems, structures, and resources that support the direct anti-poverty work. Campus Compact functions as the central VISTA program hub, performing program administration, offering training and support to VISTA members and their projects, and connecting the work happening in individual projects both to similar work happening nationwide and back to AmeriCorps. For detailed program information and FAQs, please visit our website.

Member Duties : The Volunteer and Community Impact VISTA member will focus on researching and assessing the communities and non-profit organizations as well as the campus and targeted student populations in various issue areas to include the environment, social justice, healthcare, economic, and educational organizations. Their assessment will evaluate the community needs in this area, the nonprofit organizations serving this need, and the poverty related resources existing and missing in the community. They will analyze and categorize this data for future use in Signature Service Day volunteer project co-creation and to encourage a more robust representation in the Volunteer and Civic Engagement Programs events and initiatives by first generation and other low income students.
