Member Duties : The mission of the Massachusetts Avenue Project is to nurture the growth of a diverse and equitable community food system to promote local economic opportunities, access to affordable nutritious food and social change education. MAP’s mission is implemented through its Growing Green Program, a year-round urban agriculture program that trains disadvantaged youth, ages 14-20, in sustainable urban agriculture, food systems, nutrition, micro-enterprise development and community leadership. The Mobile Market Coordinator VISTA will build on the work started by prior VISTA members, and work closely with MAP staff to develop and support new Mobile Market site partnerships, coordinate scheduling, creation and translation of outreach materials, identify best practices and facilitate partner communications to raise community awareness with the goal of improving access to nutritious, affordable and locally-sourced food in underserved neighborhoods of Buffalo, NY.
