The Minnesota Council of Nonprofits (MCN), in partnership with the Corporation for National and Community Service (CNCS), is seeking proposals from organizations interested in hosting AmeriCorps VISTA members for a three-year capacity-building project beginning in 2023. MCN VISTA Program members are full-time volunteers who work to strengthen, inform, and connect nonprofits working with communities furthest from justice—particularly BIPOC, immigrant, and refugee communities—in order to overcome the multiple determinants of poverty.
