Healthcare
AmeriCorps*VISTA members receive health benefits (though not technically health
insurance) through the Corporation for National Service managed Seven Corners health plan. In brief, this plan covers catastrophic injury (e.g. anytime you are in pain) and prescription drugs, but not preventative health (e.g. general physicals). Many questions can be answered on their Frequently Asked Questions: http://americorps.sevencorners.com/faq.htm or by calling them at (866) 699-4186

Requesting Training
AmeriCorps*VISTA members are encouraged to seek out professional development opportunities and trainings. During the first 5 months of service, members are eligible to have up to $150 of training fees (though not transportation or lodging if out-of-area) reimbursed. Trainings must relate to the member's service and members cannot take more than 1 college-level course (for credit) at a time (and must receive prior approval).
Send us (info@transmissionproject.org) an email stating:
- Official course events/description and cost, preferably a website link to the course;
- Place, date and time (or duration) of training;
- Brief description of how this course will support you in your assignment;
- State in your request that your Supervisor has approved the training, and cc them in the email request
Once you receive approval and register for the course, you will be asked to submit your receipt for reimbursement.
