Nourishing Louisiana Americorps VISTA Program
The Nourishing Louisiana AmeriCorps VISTA (Volunteers in Service to America) program, led by the Society of St. Vincent de Paul New Orleans, is a federal grant program that addresses the critical issues of food insecurity and equitable healthcare access in vulnerable communities across Southeast Louisiana.
Nourishing Louisiana VISTA members will serve at various food distribution sites to
address these challenges by engaging in capacity building work.
Capacity building refers to tasks and activities that expand the scale, reach, efficiency, or effectiveness of programs and organizations.
Member activities can include volunteer recruitment, community engagement and outreach, partnership development and expansion, research and data evaluation, and program support, development and delivery.
VISTA members do not engage in direct services.
