Member Duties : The VISTA will serve with Chenango Ambulance Services (CAS) to build organizational capacity and long-term financial viability. CAS serves a uniquely rural population where mass transit is non-existent. For low-income individuals who do not own vehicles, CAS is their primary physical link to the healthcare system, even for urgent but non-emergent care. The VISTA will build volunteer recruitment/retention systems that will further enhance this medical transportation safety net that prevents rural, low-income residents from suffering catastrophic health declines and subsequent economic ruin. Additionally, the VISTA will develop a sustainable community health education curriculum, build up social media systems, create resources, and apply for grants that will allow for building long-term organizational capacity at CAS. This position is based in Binghamton, NY and requires the VISTA to live in the area where they serve (Broome County).
