Since 1965, over 220,000 AmeriCorps members in the VISTA program have joined the fight against poverty by helping local organizations expand their capacity to make change. The VISTA program serves in each of the 50 U.S. states and in all U.S. territories. The Concho Valley Council of Governments Community Enrichment Initiative mission is to create resilient communities by placing VISTA members with non-profits and social service agencies to implement projects that will be to end poverty, empower communities, build capacity and create sustainable solutions throughout our 13-county region. Over the next year, these VISTA members will work to outreach, raise awareness, fundraise, research, recruit volunteers and establish partnerships, all the while gaining the experience and leadership skills to propel them to their next venture.
