OneStar AmeriCorps VISTA Project places community-driven individuals with nonprofits & agencies throughout Texas on transformative projects focused specifically on building organizational capacity and infrastructure to alleviate poverty. Get the support you need to accelerate your efforts in volunteer management, marketing, community outreach, fundraising, program development, and more!
OneStar accepts host site applications on a rolling basis and works to bring on new partners as space opens on our project. Complete the application below to be considered as VISTA host site with our project. Generally, it takes about 6 months from time of application until an AmeriCorps VISTA member is in service with your organization, however, that time frame can be longer if we don’t have openings at the time of application.
For support in completing a host site application, please review the slides and recording from a previously held overview session. Please ignore the deadlines and timelines noted in the slides and recording.
OneStar is not currently accepting host site applications. If you are interested in becoming a host site, send an email inquiry through the email link below and we will be in touch regarding future opportunities.
OneStar AmeriCorps VISTA Project is a quick and cost-efficient way to leverage the human capital your program needs to jumpstart new initiatives, while bypassing the complexity and expense of launching and implementing an AmeriCorps VISTA project on your own.
We make it easier for organizations to access national service resources by providing greater flexibility and ongoing support. You can rely on our extensive experience and knowledge of AmeriCorps program management, which allows you to focus on the important work of alleviating poverty in the local community.
OneStar AmeriCorps VISTA Project is a cost-share partnership, in which all parties contribute to the success and outcomes of the anti-poverty work at your organization. Investment by the host site and the community is fundamental, as the AmeriCorps VISTA resources are intended to be short-term.
Organizations interested in hosting an AmeriCorps VISTA member through OneStar AmeriCorps VISTA Project must complete a host site application. Host sites may apply for 1 or 2 AmeriCorps VISTA positions for a maximum of three years and must renew the position annually. AmeriCorps VISTA members serve for a 12-month term, so the host site should expect to recruit for a position on an annual basis.
