About More Than Words
More Than Words (MTW) is a social enterprise that empowers youth, ages 16-24, who are in the foster care system, court involved, homeless, or out of school to take charge of their lives by taking charge of a business. By working as a team to manage their own retail and online used book business and community space, youth develop the employment skills, leadership, and self-confidence they need to successfully transition to adulthood.
MTW is an exemplary organization that has continually held up a mirror to identify areas for improvement and accountability; that ethic is part of the culture and fabric of MTW, and it extends to our commitment to ensuring our staff and board reflect the racial and ethnic diversity and lived experiences of the young adults we are privileged to serve. People of color are highly encouraged to apply.
The AmeriCorps VISTA Service Opportunity
The purpose of this project is to create the tools, resources, and knowledge-base that improves More Than Words’ ability to empower system-involved young adults within the MTW model. Working directly with the Chief Learning Officer, the Evaluation Coordinator will build evaluation infrastructure by improving training and documentation materials; strengthening internal practices by monitoring data for quality and patterns; and supporting the qualitative assessment of MTW’s programming. This is an in-person role.
