VISTA Requirements/Benefits

A commitment to service for VISTA is full-time for one year, and the benefits are amazing! Not only will you make a big impact on the community you serve, but upon completion of a year of service you will receive either a cash award or an education award. The education award can be used one of two ways: to further your education or pay off student loans. You will also receive a monthly stipend as a VISTA.
