AmeriCorps Vista
VISTA is about finding long-term solutions to the problems of poverty by increasing the capability of low-income people to improve the conditions of their lives. This focus on empowerment and poverty is VISTA's unique niche in the service field, and defines the role of the Volunteer. Therefore, the focus of VISTA Volunteer activity is not to provide direct service such as one-one tutoring or counseling. Rather, VISTAs are community organizers. VISTA Volunteers try to engage all elements of the community, enabling the community to solve its own problems. Examples of activities include recruiting and training community volunteers, creative fundraising and grant-writing, public awareness work, creating resource centers, or assisting a sponsor to develop a new program.
