Additional PACC VISTAs available

Posted by on March 16, 2009

In partnership with the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), Pennsylvania Campus Compact (PACC) is pleased to announce the availability of twelve (12) additional AmeriCorps*VISTA awards to our member institutions for the 2009-2010 academic year. Please note that these additional positions are for a one-year cycle only, and not a part of the traditional three-year cycle. Current year three host campuses or new campuses can apply for a one-year project.

If your campus would like to host a VISTA member, please contact the office for an application immediately.  Applications are due via email (moakley@paccompact.org) by Tuesday, March 24th @ 9am and please follow with a paper copy within a week.

Training and technical assistance calls will be held on Wednesday, March 18th at 10am & 2pm. Please notify Meghan Oakley at moakley@paccompact.org  if you are interested in participating in either of these calls. Please note the tight timeline of the Host Site Application process in order to ensure recruitment of all VISTA members by May 8th.

These are competitive awards and will be granted based upon the quality of the VISTA project and its alignment with PACC*VISTA goals.  Please contact Meghan at moakley@paccompact.org or 717-463-6333 if you have any questions.
