Neighbor Network Member Engagement Specialist II
 
 
 
N4 programs are designed to build social capital and foster the sharing of information and resources between neighbors and involve all community assets in establishing a helpful, caring community utilizing a time exchange, volunteer program, information & referral system, a social program, and coming soon a community care program where caregivers to elders and people with disabilities will receive respite services. N4 currently serves citizens living in the Reno/Sparks, Nevada. We are nestled in the beautiful Sierra Nevada mountain range where outdoor recreation is limitless! With Lake Tahoe only 45 minutes away, enjoy skiing, hiking, biking, and more. Reno has a rich arts culture and a wide variety of local events. At N4, we want our VISTA team members to leave their year of service ready to dream big in the nonprofit sector. We are eager to meet community-minded and enthusiastic self-starters to join our team! N4 values creativity and highly motivated team members for accomplishing our mission to link, support, and grow healthy communities in Northern Nevada. By joining N4, VISTA members will learn about an asset-based community development approach, how to collaborate with other nonprofit organizations, and what it means to design programs in a citizen-centered way. The N4 Member Engagement Specialist will design and develop new member engagement and recruitment strategies to increase efficiency and ensure the sustainability of N4 programs. This VISTA will be assigned geographic regions to work within communities while building relationships. They will recruit volunteers to serve as mentors for elders and people with disabilities. Preferably, at least one Member Engagement Specialist will be bilingual and assist with translating all N4 materials into Spanish, as well as conduct orientations in Spanish.
