AmeriCorps VISTA
VISTA members are committed to developing equitable community-engaged programming that increases educational access and success for students from low-income backgrounds and communities of color. Using an equity lens, VISTAs build capacity for college campuses and organizations to increase access for educational resources, to alleviate poverty based on community identified issue areas, and empower students to be change agents in their communities. VISTA Members develop programs, build relationships and partnerships with community organizations, lead community-wide service days, and provide leadership development, support and training for volunteers.
Connect2Complete
Connect2Complete is an AmeriCorps State & National Program with two main focuses: Community College Retention and K-12 Attendance. Connect2Complete Community College is focused on improving graduation rates for Oregon community college students through peer advocacy and community engaged learning.

Connect2Complete K12 is focused on improving attendance rates and school engagement in K12 schools in Multnomah County through mentorship.

College Access Corps
Established in 2014, in partnership with Washington Campus Compact, College Access Corps is an AmeriCorps State & National Program that supports local economically disadvantaged youth to become engaged in their education, learn more about the college application and financial aid process and become academically prepared for higher education. AmeriCorps members are placed at selected member campuses, non-profits, or K12 institutions, where they will help develop, implement or coordinate college access programs within their local communities.
