Communities Thriving - IN

Does the thought of serving at a college or university excite you? Are you motivated to make a difference in our communities to help them thrive? Do you have a passion for service? If you answered "yes" to any of those questions, you may be the perfect fit for the Communities Thriving VISTA program!

Our current openings in Indiana are with the following sites:

• Wabash College (Crawfordsville)
• Montgomery County Community Foundation (Crawfordsville)
• Ball State University (Muncie)
• Hanover College (Hanover)
• Community-Engaged Alliance (Indianapolis).

The Communities Thriving VISTA project was created as a partnership known as IKONC (Indiana, Kentucky, Ohio, and North Carolina, pronounced "iconic"). IKONC is a consortium of state civic engagement organizations based in higher education with the goals of educating students for active citizenship and partnering with communities for positive change. The four organizations are Community-Engaged Alliance (IN), EngageKY, Community Campus Coalition (OH), and North Carolina Campus Engagement. The Communities Thriving VISTA project seeks to place VISTA members with nonprofit organizations or higher education institutions in order to address poverty-related issues and create positive community outcomes. Communities Thriving VISTA members will serve with a local agency and work with community groups to benefit low income individuals and families.
