The Coalition's AmeriCorps*VISTA Program places year-long volunteers at emergency food providers, anti-hunger organizations, and within the Coalition's office to help them provide more and higher quality food to low-income New Yorkers throughout all five boroughs of New York City. Whether it is managing volunteers, building community support, grantwriting, or providing kitchen and pantries with technical assistance, the VISTA experience is never dull, and serves as the perfect training ground for aspiring community leaders. This job offers a rich and varied work experience that many entry-level jobs in the non-profit sector can not provide. The VISTA Program does not entail direct-service work. If you are interested in that, we recommend you see our AmeriCorps*STATE Program listing below.

To be part of the VISTA Team, you must:

• Have a BA degree or significant work experience.
• Be a citizen or permanent resident of the U.S.
• Be a self-starter at ease working both independently and in teams.
• Be comfortable working with low-income, homeless and hungry people.
• Fluency in Spanish or another language (other than English) is a plus.

VISTAs will experience working alongside people from diverse racial and ethnic backgrounds, as well as business, political and civic leaders. This is the perfect opportunity for recent college graduates and those looking to change careers to get into the non-profit world and gain a wide range of skills.
