Big Brothers Big Sisters of CT: Big Futures Program

The Big Futures' AmeriCorps VISTA Member will assist in the creation and support of mentoring relationships between professionally screened and trained adult volunteers and identified youth/young adults within the communities we serve. These relationships result in significant, healthy impacts on all participants including the participating youth, their families, and the mentor. The VISTA member will work alongside the Director of the Big Futures Program to design a rotating educational curriculum and identify post-secondary planning gaps between students from low-income families and those with more affluence, as well as for students of different ethnicities. This position is an excellent opportunity to gain insight into the not-for-profit sector and develop work experience in a hands-on environment with individuals who respond daily to critical community issues. It is also a great chance to develop above-entry-level skills during the Service Year of 2024 to 2025. The VISTA's efforts will serve to break the cycle of poverty by identifying and closing the gaps of access to education, resources, and opportunities for youth who come from high-need and low opportunity communities. The VISTA will help young adults get the training, education, workplace knowledge, apprenticeships and key supports they need to be productive workers earning a living wage, and contributing members of their communities.
