Member Duties : The overall goal for this VISTA is to plan and provide outreach strategies to assigned communities to promote school-readiness and the basic reading needs of children 0 to 5 in rural communities, including finding funding sources to maintain that outreach. In addition, the VISTA will serve as the Imagination Library Coordinator for Mendocino County. The function of the Coordinator is to pursue fund raising and outreach opportunities for the program to ensure every child has books to read regardless of their families' income. In pursuing this, the VISTA will provide additional outreach to rural areas around the county, and maintain already established connections within the community. The VISTA will set up and establish key volunteer infrastructure in which to continue the program in the future.
