24-25 Volunteer Engagement VISTA - Washington, DC
 
 
 
If you are beginning your career or changing careers, in this placement you’ll develop transferable skills in time and project management, relationship development, and training colleagues. If you are looking for a post-retirement position, we will welcome your experience and wisdom! Catholic Charities DC Volunteer Engagement Office (VEO) welcomes members of the community to join our mission by standing in solidarity with the +180K people annually accessing the agency’s services via our 50+ programs and 30+ locations in Washington DC and 5 counties in Maryland. The VISTA in this role will collaborate with the VEO Team to develop and deliver a training program to our staff. The program will raise competence of staff across the agency to follow our standard procedures for engaging volunteers and for documenting their activities in our volunteer management database system. As a VISTA in the VEO, you’ll join a fast-paced, highly collaborative, and very visible team. In the VEO, VISTA members are warmly welcomed, become part of a tight-knit team, and are supported to pursue their professional development goals while achieving program goals. We are a team that makes a difference. If you want to do important work alongside dedicated colleagues at a large not-for profit (side note: CC DC is the largest non-government social service agency in the region!), this is the position for you. This VISTA position is a part of Catholic Charities USA’s Family Strengthening Program, a national intermediary project. As a member, you will meet virtually with VISTA Leaders and other VISTAs serving throughout the country, all focused on alleviating poverty. VISTA members who successfully complete their year of service will earn unique benefits.
