Why the conversation needs to be reframed
National & State VISTA Offices pushing sponsoring organizations to narrow focus
Increased accountability and focus on community outcomes
Change in Strategic Priority Areas from the White House (Engaging Students in Service no longer a priority)
College student outcomes seen as irrelevant to mission of AmeriCorps*VISTA
Old PACC*VISTA Goals New PACC*VISTA Goals
To develop and/or enhance campus-based efforts to address one of the identified AmeriCorps*VISTA service focus areas;
To integrate campus-community engagement and service efforts (including service-learning, community service, and work-study) so that local communities have better access to service resources and to meet the needs of low income communities more effectively and efficiently;
To support PACC with its mission to develop and/or enhance service programs and campus-community partnerships throughout Pennsylvania’s higher education network.
To develop or enhance campus-community efforts to address one of the identified project focus areas;
To create, develop, or sustain reciprocal, mutually beneficial partnerships between the campus and community organizations, leaders, and members;
To foster PACC*VISTA members as professionals and emerging leaders in the fields of community development, civic engagement, and/or higher education.
How to align Campus Compact and VISTA goals
How to refocus project outcomes and performance measures
All projects must focus in one of four specific project areas (tutoring, college access, food access, energy efficiency)
Each area has three prescribed results that all projects must fulfill
Both Logic Model and Performance Measures Form has pre-filled information
All Intermediate and End Outcomes focus on changes in lives of project beneficiaries
How to speak a new language
Campus-community versus campus-basedUse community partner name on all official
documentsCommunity outcomes are primary, college
student outcomes are secondary
How else can we adapt?
What else can we do to adapt? How do we need to support our members
through these processes?How do we showcase our changes to CNCS?
