What is VISTA?

AmeriCorps VISTA (Volunteers in Service to America) provides full-time members to nonprofit, faith-based and other community organizations, and public agencies to create and expand programs that bring low-income individuals and communities out of poverty.  AmeriCorps VISTA members leverage human, financial, and material resources to increase the capacity of thousands of low-income areas across the country to address challenges and improve their lives and communities.
Our VISTA positions focus on building the capacity of TechMission, whereas our other TMC positions focus on direct service or volunteer mobilization.

VISTA Benefits

VISTA benefits are the same as other TMC positions with the following exceptions:

• The living stipend is $13,548
• Rental assistance of up to $500/month will be provided
• After successful completion of a year of service, the Member may choose between a $4,725 Education Award or a $1,200 post-service stipend
