VISTA & Habitat: Building a Successful Year


  • Green Lake Conference Center W2511 State Rd 23 Green Lake, Wisconsin 54941 (map)

This June, 8 new VISTA members will begin serving at three affiliates - HFH Lakeside; HFH Serving Green Lake, Marquette & Waushara Counties; and HFH Wisconsin River Area - and the SSO. These full-year and summer VISTA members will work with affiliates to expand or create home repair programs and integrate veteran-specific programming.

This training retreat will provide the VISTAs with background on the history of the VISTA program, Habitat for Humanity, and home repairs. Two remote sessions will focus on HFHI’s Aging in Place and Veterans Build programs.
