In addition, the focus is on increasing the community's and university's vaccination rates and reducing drug abuse, domestic and/or sexual abuse, and overall health disparities within the community. The VISTA project will see to 1. Increase community awareness of drug abuse, domestic and/or sexual abuse, and health disparities by 25%, 2. Increase community conversations about drug abuse, domestic and/or sexual abuse, and health disparities by 25%, 3. Increase vaccination rates by 5% among ASU students and the community, 4. Participate in ongoing efforts to reduce drug abuse and domestic and/or sexual abuse on ASU's campus by 10%, and 5. Assist with ongoing efforts to improve and reduce health disparities on ASU's campus and surrounding areas within Montgomery County by 10%. The ASU AmeriCorps VISTA Program is expected to benefit between 500 - 1000 individuals.
