AmeriCorps VISTA Project Report Supplement



BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE

AmeriCorps provides the VISTA Progress Report Supplement (VPRS) as an addendum to the regular progress report required of organizations approved to sponsor a VISTA project. The VPRS is submitted on an annual basis and is intended to capture information about activities over a single fiscal year, regardless of the individual program year. The VPRS is the vehicle through which projects submit specific data elements needed by AmeriCorps to report on fiscal year performance. AmeriCorps personnel will use the reports to track agency- and VISTA-specific performance measures on an annual basis.


COMPLETION AND SUBMISSION GUIDELINES

All VISTA projects are required to submit the VPRS once per year. The project supervisor should complete the VPRS. AmeriCorps VISTA members should be allowed to review the completed reports, but should not be required to complete the report.


REPORTING PERIOD

All VPRS submissions are due upon completion of the fiscal year or within thirty (30) days of the project closing, if applicable.


The reporting period covers October 1 through September 30. The due date is the second Friday in November.


TERMS AND DEFINITIONS

See the Progress Report Supplemental Guidance for information on terms and definitions. The terms have very specific definitions and by reporting on any of them, you are indicating that you are in compliance with those definitions.
