Volunteer Coordinator- AmeriCorps VISTA

Communities In Schools of Nevada has partnered with AmeriCorps VISTA and is actively recruiting a full-time Volunteer Coordinator. This is a great opportunity for a strong communicator interested in community service, nonprofit administration, or social justice. 

As the Volunteer Coordinator VISTA member at Communities In Schools of Nevada, you will help with our mission to help children unlock the unlimited potential they have but which may not be accessible to them due to inequities of opportunities to succeed. Your work will focus on surveying staff members on potential volunteer roles, updating volunteer procedures, training, scheduling, and actively recruiting and managing volunteers while focusing on the future sustainability of the program.

You will collaborate with CIS staff to identify volunteer opportunities and how to communicate those opportunities to the larger community. In addition, you will have the chance to work with seasoned nonprofit administrators and program personnel and network with other nonprofits and community partners.

Communities In Schools of Nevada currently serves 90,000 students at 92 high-poverty schools throughout the state. With more than 120 + community partners, we coordinate resources and services — literally bringing the community into our schools — to do whatever it takes to support the students we serve.

Applicants should be able to work independently, be organized, have good time management skills, have strong writing skills and have a passion for helping students achieve in life. This is currently a hybrid in-person and remote position. 

CIS of Nevada is pleased to offer the following benefits to the VISTA member:

• $1,000 per month housing stipend
• Monthly cell phone allowance
