Recruiting Organization: Idaho Youth Ranch
Idaho Youth Ranch unites for Idaho’s youth by providing accessible programs and services that nurture hope, healing, and resilience. We operate a network of thrift stores across the state of Idaho that fund our youth programs and services, including: emergency shelter, residential care, youth and family therapy, job readiness training, adoption services, and more.
In 2023, Idaho Youth Ranch is opening a new 64-bed residential facility, serving low-income families in Idaho. The facility, a first of its kind in Idaho, will provide a place for Idaho youth to stay close to their families while receiving necessary treatment. VISTA members will be involved in the recruitment, engagement, fundraising, and more projects related to the residential center.
We are looking for 5 VISTAs and 1 Lead VISTA to join our Volunteer Services, Human Resources, Marketing and Development, and Training departments. VISTA (Volunteers in Service to America) is a year-long volunteer program that supports nonprofit organizations in capacity building and prepares volunteers for careers in the nonprofit, public or private sector.
All positions are based out of our offices in Boise, ID with occasional travel to other locations across the state.
The AmeriCorps VISTA members at Idaho Youth Ranch have the opportunity to work with passionate teammates, engage in monthly training and development, gain valuable skills, and live in one of the fastest growing cities in the United States!
The Recruitment and engagement VISTA will focus on recruitment efforts to build capacity in our employee relationships with the surrounding communities, identify new places for IYR to table/market and create tools to increase visibility at trade shows/recruitment expos/community awareness events & job fairs, and work with our HR team to document the implementation of the new HRIS and to create training tools. They will help to design and implement curriculum and workshops for partnerships with shelters in the Treasure Valley to increase job readiness with the clients at the shelters and create a pipeline of employees for IYR.
