25-26 Rainbow Labs Community Engagement VISTA
 
 
 
Rainbow Labs is a Los Angeles-based nonprofit dedicated to supporting LGBQ+ youth through mentorship, leadership development, and community engagement. Founded on the belief that all young people deserve to thrive in environments that affirm their identities, Rainbow Labs creates safe spaces and structured programs where LGBQ+ youth can be their authentic selves, build life skills, and access networks of support. Our programs operate across Los Angeles County, reaching youth in underserved communities. As Rainbow Labs expands its reach and deepens its impact, we recognize that strategic community engagement is critical. We aim to elevate our brand visibility, grow our mentor base, and build sustainable partnerships that increase youth access to supportive programming. To do this effectively, we are launching a VISTA position dedicated to community engagement, outreach systems design, and capacity-building initiatives that align with our long-term mission. The overarching goal of the Community Engagement Associate VISTA is to increase Rainbow Labs' organizational capacity by designing and implementing systems that support mentor recruitment, community outreach, and strategic partnerships. The VISTA’s work will lay the foundation for sustainable community engagement practices that ensure LGBQ+ youth have continued access to caring adult mentors, inclusive spaces, and affirming programs. If you're passionate about youth empowerment, have a strong ability to build relationships, and have experience with community outreach, this year-long opportunity is a great fit!
