Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) offers free tax preparation assistance to low or moderate income individuals. The VITA program is made possible with the time and talent of people like you. As a VITA volunteer, you will make a difference by helping in the free preparation of tax returns. You will learn a valuable skill and help eligible families in the Upper Valley get the income tax credits they are entitled to, without having tax preparation fees cut into their refunds.
Complete training is provided to enable you to become a certified volunteer tax preparer. Orientation and training starts November 29, 2016 and continues through January 2017. Tax preparation begins Jan. 31 and ends April 11, 2017 once a week in Westminster, VT.

Mission Statement
The mission of Southeastern Vermont Community Action (SEVCA) is to enable people to cope with, and reduce the hardships of poverty; create sustainable self-sufficiency; and reduce the causes and move toward the elimination of poverty.
Description
SEVCA gives people the knowledge, tools, and support to break the cycle of dependence, and works to find solutions to the deep-seated problems of poverty, largely by empowering and collaborating with those whose lives are affected by it daily.
SEVCA was created in 1965 as a part of the nationwide 'War on Poverty’ and chartered as a Community Action Agency (CAA) - a private non-profit corporation, locally initiated and governed, and designated by local, state and federal officials as the 'anti-poverty agency’ serving Windham and Windsor Counties.
