Play Expansion​/School Partnership VISTA

TThe GOALS Success Through Service VISTA project strengthens GOALS’ long-term capacity to deliver free, team-oriented social development opportunities through athletics, learning, and service-learning. Based in Orange County, the project builds sustainable systems that expand support for low-income, at-risk youth in underserved communities and adults with physical and developmental disabilities. It helps GOALS improve access to services and create lasting pathways for scholastic growth and workforce readiness.

The VISTA member will develop a data-informed school expansion plan for the Learn to Play Hockey Program by researching underserved communities, identifying and prioritizing Title I schools, and creating a school prospect database, readiness assessment, and expansion recommendations. The member will also strengthen school and community partnership systems by developing outreach materials, partnership criteria, meeting tools, MOU templates, and transition procedures.

In addition, the VISTA will support funding, transportation, and equipment sustainability by researching grants and sponsor ships, building reusable resource-development materials, and developing transportation options analysis, cost comparisons, and a multiyear sustainability plan. The member will create evaluation, documentation, reporting, and transition tools so GOALS staff can continue the work after the service term ends.
