Reviews

Americorps VISTA

May 2019 - August 2019 Austin, TX
“Being an Americorps VISTA was a great opportunity for me to get involved with both the Americorps organization and the City of Austin as a whole. I learned a lot about how the City's Public Health department is run and met many people with whom I can network in the future. My job at a community center allowed me to directly connect with so many individuals who are facing poverty, homelessness, and hunger across the city, and revived my desire to fight for social and economic equality in Austin.”
