Member Duties : VISTA summer associates will develop, implement and evaluate our Health and Wellness Initiative that will focus on Mindfulness, Nutrition and Fitness for young people. It is essential that our students understand the importance of self-care and engaging in healthy habits for life. Our goal is to educate our youth on how each of these areas has an impact on every area of your life. By increasing our students understanding of nutrition, fitness and mindfulness and developing skills to make healthy choices, we can impact our students overall health. VISTA summer associates will also assist by providing direct support to summer staff members. Each VISTA summer associate will partner with a cohort of students to facilitate the summer programming.
