Frequently Asked Questions How many MCC AmeriCorps*VISTA members are there?
MCC AmeriCorps*VISTAs are placed at different host site campuses across the state of Michigan. In 2000-2010, MCC AmeriCorps*VISTAs are placed at 18 host sites across the state. When do MCC AmeriCorps*VISTA members serve? MCC AmeriCorps*VISTAs must attend pre-service orientation (PSO) before they begin their year of national service. The MCC VISTA year of service begins the day following PSO and extends for 365 days. This year’s PSO will be held at the end of July, 2009. In some cases, VISTA members may be able to begin living and serving at a host site prior to pre-service orientation, but these days do not count toward the year of VISTA service.
