Three-Quarters Time: Pathways to Prosperity Central Oregon
 
 
 
The AmeriCorps program at St. Vincent de Paul of Central Oregon is designed to expand organizational capacity and strengthen community resilience by deploying dedicated service members across multiple sites in La Pine, Redmond, and Bend. Members will provide essential support to food access initiatives, social services, and thrift store operations, directly serving individuals and families in need while gaining valuable professional experience. Through this program, full- and part-time AmeriCorps members will engage in activities such as assisting clients in self-sufficiency programs, distributing food and resources, supporting case management, and enhancing thrift store operations that generate critical revenue for community services. Members will also participate in statewide service projects, ongoing professional training, and leadership development opportunities, ensuring both personal growth and organizational impact. The La Pine St. Vincent de Paul chapter will serve as the fiscal sponsor and lead site, coordinating member stipends, compliance, and reporting. The program manager will oversee member training, program monitoring, and the creation of a comprehensive service handbook to ensure consistency and effectiveness. Each service site will contribute to supervision, mentoring, and local recruitment, ensuring that members reflect the diverse communities they serve. In its first year, the program will engage at least seven members, with plans to expand to ten in year two. Long-term sustainability will be achieved through a combination of cash matches, in-kind contributions, and grant funding. This initiative represents a strategic investment in both people and systems, leveraging national service to strengthen food access, reduce poverty, and foster community well-being across Central Oregon.
