Campus Compact VISTA Michigan State University - ARAC
The Campus Compact Ameri Corps VISTA program places Ameri Corps VISTA members in full service with our campus and community partners for one year. 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 members’ work is to build capacity, meaning that rather than directly serving the community, they enhance or create 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 Ameri Corps.
