THN Poverty Research, Assessment, and Marketing VISTA - East

East Texas Human Needs Network (ETHNN) is a network of individuals and organizations working together for strengthened programs, connection, and improved awareness of services that meet essential human needs. We value and respect the voice of individuals in need. We value responsiveness to the needs of our community.

This VISTA project will build poverty initiatives to support the work of local partner organizations in the areas of housing, healthcare, employment, education, behavioral health, and transportation. To achieve this goal, the VISTA member will primarily focus on poverty research and assessment by developing an assessment tool and providing data to ETHNN partner organizations. The outcome will allow community partners to more effectively plan services to meet current needs of our neighbors who live in poverty, as well as data to use in applications for funding. In addition, the VISTA will engage in strategic planning and marketing of understanding poverty education initiatives.
