The Military Child Education Coalition's mission is to support all military-connected children by educating and collaborating to resolve education challenges associated with the military lifestyle. The proposed VISTA project aligns with the Education and Military and Veteran Families Support AmeriCorps focus areas. The project aims to deliver new educational and social-emotional learning programming to an additional 3,000 military-connected children, parents, and educators. It also seeks to secure an additional $1,000,000 in funding along with accompanying fundraising resources to support this new programming. VISTA members and VISTA leaders will contribute to the project's goals over three years by researching, designing, and developing new programming, as well as creating a reusable fundraising database and toolkit.
