Serve Alaska VISTA Project

During the next year (2012-2013), Serve Alaska will be conducting a survey of assistance provided by national service to programs and agencies across the state working to alleviate poverty. The project will be executed by Serve Alaska AmeriCorps VISTA member Tenaya Lamon-Anderson. In addition to the survey, regional meetings will be set up in various places to gather further information from communities on how programming can be improved. Goals for this year-long project will be to identify gaps and overlap in services currently provided, as well as identifying what models of programs working with national service are working well and could possibly be replicated in other parts of the state. Findings of a final report will be presented at a State Community Service Commission meeting and will hopefully be a useful tool for them when assessing the national service programs providing assistance in the state.
