Founded in 1933 at the call of Albert Einstein, the IRC is one of the world's largest international humanitarian non-governmental organizations (INGO), at work in more than 40 countries and 29 U.S. cities helping people to survive, reclaim control of their future and strengthen their communities.
A force for humanity, IRC employees deliver lasting impact by restoring safety, dignity and hope to millions. If you're a solutions-driven, passionate change-maker, come join us in positively impacting the lives of millions of people world-wide for a better future.

VISTA project areas may include employment skills development, financial capabilities, English language learning, technology use support, and navigation of systems necessary for basic needs access including food, health, clothing, childcare, and transportation.
The VISTA member will help further develop systems and monitoring tools; evaluate current programs, analyze data to capture unmet client needs or unreached clients; develop curriculum and program materials; conduct resource mapping; create referral resource banks; provide written reports on recommendations .
While VISTA assignments do not include regular direct service work, the VISTA members will have the opportunity to substantially contribute to programs that are responsive to clients’ needs and interests, following an approach that combats barriers that systemically exclude communities IRC serves.
The VISTA member’s efforts will result in a greater capacity for the organization to hold its various Economic Empowerment programs accountable to clients’ unique needs so it can best support their ability to stabilize, integrate in their community, and thrive.
