“Domestic Peace Corps” Opportunity for College Graduates

November 8, 2013

Do you miss VISIONS? If you are a college graduate and wanting a service-oriented job opportunity, you may want to look into Volunteers In Service To America, (VISTA). Over twenty years ago our Montana programs started with contacts who we met through VISTA.

The Montana Campus Compact is recruiting college graduates to serve in communities across Montana with its AmeriCorps VISTA program. The Montana Campus Compact is a higher education network committed to making service and volunteerism key elements of the higher education experience.

VISTA is often called “the domestic Peace Corps.” VISTAs serving with MTCC receive a modest living allowance, health insurance, training and an Education Award upon completion of one year of service. Projects build new infrastructure and range from graduation focused to college access and success, to supporting veterans and more!

If you are a college grad who’s interested in making a difference in Montana, committed to going where the need is, and passionate about service please get in touch with Campus Compact at mtcompact.org or by calling 406-243-5177 x 3.
