TJPDC seeks a dedicated AmeriCorps VISTA member to build the capacity of the Central Virginia Regional Housing Partnership (CVRHP). The VISTA will develop tools, resources, and frameworks that enable the organization to more effectively serve low-income populations long after the service term ends. The VISTA member will enhance stakeholder engagement by designing communication toolkits and relationship management guides for CVRHP members. To support organizational sustainability, they will create grant calendars, funding databases, event templates, and evaluation tools. In Local Emergency Food and Shelter Program (EFSP) grant administration, they will standardize fund distribution protocols and application review processes. Additionally, they will establish housing study infrastructure by designing data collection methodologies, stakeholder input frameworks, and communication templates to translate research into actionable
strategies.
