The National Society for American Indian Elderly (NSAIE) works to improve
conditions allowing American Indian Elderly to stay in their homes as respected
members of their communities and keepers of their traditions. The NSAIE is
among more than 1,200 AmeriCorps VISTA (Volunteers in Service to America)
projects nationwide. As a branch of the Corporation for National Community
Service, AmeriCorps VISTA has a mission to end poverty in all its forms.
VISTA members who serve through the NSAIE work to enhance services for
American Indian elders. The NSAIE VISTA members assist with capacity building,
grant writing, coordination of services and other locally directed activities
that help build stronger communities.
We are currently recruiting for placements with American Indian elder
programs. Positions are available with Tribes and Tribal organizations in 23
states. Volunteers serve in predominantly rural areas where the conditions for
American Indian seniors are challenging, where the project can have the best
impact.
The work is challenging, but a year of service will give you the experience
of your life. The NSAIE makes a difference through the dedication of
individuals like you; we look forward to hearing from you. Feel free to send us an
e-mail or call with any questions you may have regarding our program.
Nothing But Good Shall Come From It.
