The CTC VISTA Project is now accepting applications from nonprofit organizations that would like to receive a CTC VISTA volunteer for Summer 2008. 

If you don't know about CTC VISTA, you should: "The CTC VISTA Project is a non-monetary foundation that helps match highly qualified AmeriCorps*VISTA candidates with organizations that use, or would like to use better, information and communications technologies." Here at NTEN, we liked our VISTA volunteer (Karl) so much, we hired him full time.

The deadline to apply is February 22nd.  You can find the application guidelines and eligibility requirements at: http://ctcvista.org/apply/org

Then apply for a CTC VISTA and hurry - the deadline to complete the first phase of the application process is this Friday.

CTC VISTAs can be placed with any nonprofit that uses technology to address the needs of low-income communities. Special consideration is given to organizations that work in community networking, technology assistance, digital media, and community organizing projects. And if you're an NTEN member, you'll get top priority for volunteer placement.

We can highly recommend the CTC VISTA project - we love our VISTA Karl!

You can find more information about the project and the application process online.

If your organization is not an NTEN member and you want priority placement, become a member today.
