VISTA Youth Development Coordinator
 
 
 
Rebuilding Together New Orleans’ (RTNO) mission is to preserve and revitalize houses and communities, assuring that low-income homeowners can live in warmth, safety, and independence. In addition to home repairs services, RTNO offers a summer workforce development program to train opportunity youth in construction skills and professional development that help increase their opportunities of obtaining higher paying jobs that alleviate poverty. The VISTA project will seek to develop resources, partnerships, curriculums, and recruitment strategies with local and national organizations and groups already working with or interested in working with youths to expand the summer program into year-round opportunities. The two VISTA members will contribute to the goals of the project by performing activities such as community assessment, volunteer recruitment, outreach, performance measurement, program development and delivery, and community awareness and engagement over the course of twelve months.
