January 17, 2022 - Today, Robin Hanson, Program Director for Americorps Vista told us about this program in Arizona. Basically, volunteers are recruited from recent graduates from colleges/universities and then given a year of training to prepare them working in a variety of non-profit agencies.
In Arizona, most of these volunteers are located in rural communities or small towns that need some extra volunteer help. Her presentation can be seen by clicking HERE.
