Common Ground VISTA 2026-2027
 
 
 
The Public & School Partnership is an AmeriCorps-funded nonprofit organization based in Logan, Utah, at the Utah State University Institute for Disability Research, Policy & Practice. PSP accomplishes its mission by building partnerships between schools, nonprofit organizations, local institutions, and community members. PSP’s full-time AmeriCorps VISTA members strengthen the capacity of schools and nonprofit organizations across northern Utah by developing sustainable systems, tools, outreach materials, volunteer recruitment resources, grant writing materials, fundraising templates, communication tools, and process guides that staff can use to sustain and expand their programs. Through this capacity-building work, VISTA members help organizations increase access to resources, services, and opportunities for individuals and communities experiencing economic barriers.
