Ser Vermont is housed within Vermont’s Agency of Human Services. The Ser Vermont mission is to promote, support, and recognize volunteerism and community service throughout Vermont. Ser Vermont VISTA Umbrella Project members serve at community-based non-profit organizations and State agencies throughout Vermont that help alleviate poverty and improve the lives of Vermonters. Members build capacity in a wide variety of programs including food security, environment, education, disaster response, workforce development, and affordable housing and homelessness.
