This week we welcomed a new VISTA, Rachael. Rachael is serving as the Social Enterprise Greenhouse Program Development VISTA. I attended the webinar "Community Assessments: The Heart and Foundation of VISTA Service" on Wednesday and we had our October VISTA PD (AmeriCorps Welcome Event) on Friday. The event was facilitated by Nicole, and I led the ice breaker. There were two breakout sessions, including the "Leadership Compass" activity.

This week was busy for me. On Monday I enjoyed meeting with Serena and Emma about communication/social media strategies and planning. On Tuesday we had the Community Partnership Network (re)Orientation and I had a few more VISTA interviews to conduct. We had a VISTA check-in on Wednesday and I thought it went well. I also attended the Tech Day presentation about the Google Shared Drive on Thursday.
On Monday and Tuesday, I held orientation for four new members of the 2020/2021 Brown University AmeriCorps VISTA Fellowship cohort. I'm excited to have more members to collaborate with and learn from. I also conducted a few telephone screening interviews and we're hoping to finalize any new VISTA placements by the end of next week. Lastly, I was finally able to access eGrants after many technical difficulties and I'm working on creating new VISTA postings to increase our recruitment efforts.
