MNA 2018 - VISTA Leader
 
 
 
Michigan Nonprofit Association (MNA) is a statewide nonprofit organization that serves its nonprofit members to advance their missions. MNA's vision is that Michigan's nonprofit sector be a vital leader in building and sustaining thriving communities, and MNA believes that active, engaged volunteers are imperative. MNA VISTA members are placed with K-12 schools, college campuses, or nonprofit organizations, working on issues of education and economic opportunity. Members serve in one or more of the following four capacities: 1) Student Engagement: Engage in activities intended to improve learning and success in low-achieving schools. 2) College Access & Success: Engage in counseling, academic, enrollment, and retention support activities for economically disadvantaged K-12 students and first-generation college students. Access to information about the nonprofit sector as a viable career option will also be incorporated into student support activities. 3) Financial Literacy: Engage in activities that provide, support and/or facilitate access to resources and services that improve financial literacy, stability and security. 4) Workforce Development: Engage in activities that provide, support and/or facilitate access to workforce development resources and services intended to improve employability and, ultimately, lead to employment.
