2025-2026 AmeriCorps VISTA Project Proposal Application
Ends on
Project proposals are now being accepted from college and university campuses (and partnering schools, government and nonprofits) interested in hosting one or more AmeriCorps VISTA members during the 2025-2026 service year. These year-long projects can be scheduled to take place from August 2025 to August 2026. VISTA (or "Volunteers In Service To America") is a legacy national service program, often called "the domestic Peace Corps." VISTA projects are dedicated to sustainably addressing poverty and Montana Campus Network for Civic Engagement VISTA projects work via colleges, universities, schools, nonprofits, and government agencies in order to build organizational efficiency, efficacy, and program reach, improving the lives of low-income people.
VISTAs may be recruited locally from local graduates, or from the national pool. Staff recommend a recruitment strategy that creates a pipeline for local graduates to spend a year building capacity at their alma mater!
Our priority areas are: College Access & Success, K-12 Success or School Readiness, Community Resilience (including climate change resilience), and Veterans & Military Families.
Priority application deadline: January 10, 2025.
Secondary deadline: January 31, 2025.
