Mi Patria PR Capacity Building
 
 
 
Mi Patria PR's mission is to enhance the well-being of communities in Puerto Rico and tackle displacement by addressing four programmatic areas: 1) Housing & Sustainability, 2) Emergency Response & Preparedness, 3) Veterans and Families, and 4) Education: Art & Music. The VISTA project will improve communities in Puerto Rico by recruiting and retaining volunteers to help with all project areas, to plan and evaluate projects related home rehabilitation, and to improve social-emotional skills of students (K-12) through art and music workshops. The project will also reach veterans and family members in preparation for workforce readiness. Mi Patria PR is currently retrofitting one abandoned school in Isabela, PR into a community resiliency center. Four VISTA members will contribute to the goals of the project by performing activities such as volunteer management, project coordination, data analysis, communications, community engagement and fundraising over the course of their service. The proposed VISTA project aligns with 1) economic opportunity, 2) education, 3) veteran and military families, and 4) disaster preparedness focus areas.
