Turning Points for Children VISTA
 
 
 
The TP4C VISTA will align with Economic Opportunity goals set forth in the AmeriCorps VISTA guidance for this year by helping to streamline organization efforts to ensure that youth aging out of the foster care system have the resources needed to support themselves through employment and receiving appropriate health care and reintegration services, that youth remain safe from violent crime, and that youth complete post- secondary education or training for continued development. Part of this position will include engagement with TP4C's Food and Wellness Network (FAWN), which operates food pantries and conducts wellness programming. A VISTA in this position will support food distribution efforts and expand health and wellness programming and case management.
