Tulane hosts a weekly meeting for all our VISTA members to review activities and projects and to participate in professional development workshops to help build the skill sets of our members for success this year and beyond. Housing is provided free of charge to our members. You can learn more about ongoing activities at https://tulanevistaprogram.wordpress.com.
