PHENND Fellows-Impact Alignment Coordinator VISTA
For 17 years, Feast of Justice has supported households experiencing poverty and food insecurity in Northeast Philadelphia through food and resource assistance. We are located in one of the most diverse zip codes in the Commonwealth and are the section of Philadelphia with the highest growing poverty rate.
The community needs our support-and to that end, we serve 3000 unique households as one of the largest food providers in the city-distributing nearly one million pounds of food each year. But, beyond food, we work to connect our guests to resources that can help to break poverty's grip, and to transform the community by engaging it in the work of healing. Feast of Justice is dedicated to our vision of a world in which food security, life skills, and a supportive community abounds for all. Further help on this page can be found by clicking here.
Member Duties : Our program outputs are significant, but ensuring long-term outcomes is critical. To that end, the overall goal of the PHENND Fellow VISTA is to build our capacity to understand the impact that we have in our community by developing and operationalizing systems for outcome assessment and communication. Specifically, the VISTA will do the following, using our Healthy Pantry Logic Model (HPLM): 1) work with our inventory team and wider leadership team to ensure accurate output measurement across our programs; 2) implement practices to engage with our guest population for assessment of wider outcomes that go beyond food access; 3) create mechanisms to report out outcomes in both internal and external venues while fostering sustainability of the practice.
