Rural Action Sustainable Ohio Public Energy Council VISTA
 
 
 
Appalachian Ohio is rich with assets--assets like our people, our land, and unwavering sense of self-reliance. Our region is also ripe for industry that builds on these assets while supporting the environment and the communities who call it home. As the Rural Action Community Resource VISTA, you can help us harness these assets and mobilize them for a more sustainable, more successful small business economy. This VISTA will join the SOPEC staff in Athens, Ohio, serving alongside the SOPEC Director of Marketing and in close collaboration with the City of Athens VISTA and Rural Action Sustainable Energy VISTA.
