Job description
The Grassroots Support VISTA will support several partners with specific projects. The goal is for a VISTA to support a small group of grassroots non-profits with key leverage points to move them into a place of more effective models with greater reach in the community.

Some illustrative activities that the Member will carry out with partners include: - Create and market tools that are socially viable and useful for populations served by the partner organization. The VISTA will also explore the creation of a Digital Resources App and will support grant writing efforts, procurement of content data and volunteer enrollment activities. - Work with a grassroots education advocacy and parent involvement program that serves disenfranchised families and children. The VISTA will support partnership development, curriculum development, and the development of communications and operational tools. -Work with two BIPOC led organizations that are working to increase fresh produce access with communications and volunteer recruitment and management systems.
