Job description
The Campus Compact AmeriCorps VISTA program places AmeriCorps VISTA members in full service with our campus and community partners for a one-year period. During this year, members spend 35 hours per week on their host site’s campus or with one of that campus’s community partners to work on building systems and programs that support low-income college students and community members. The VISTA member’s work is to build capacity, meaning that rather than directly serving the community, they’re enhancing or creating systems, structures, and resources that support the direct anti-poverty work. Campus Compact functions as the central VISTA program hub, performing program administration, offering training and support to VISTA members and their projects, and connecting the work happening in individual projects both to similar work happening nationwide and back to AmeriCorps. For detailed program information and FAQs, please visit our website.
Member Duties : The VISTA will focus on the implementation of the Pitt Community Tutor Collective and all programs that fall within the initiative. The Collective was initially launched in 2020 to institutionalize a support structure for educational programs across the University. The CTC aims to create a streamlined approach with all tutoring programs so that a foundation in curriculum exists and standards can be set for all pieces of the program including training, development of community partnerships, implementation of policies, and the evaluations of each programmatic piece. The CTC has been in planning stages and implemented in small ways over the past two and a half years due to the lingering impact of the pandemic as well as capacity challenges our office has faced. The efforts of the VISTA will be essential to the sustainability of tutoring programs at the University and will help launch the next iteration of the Community Tutor Collective.
