Rita Smith
“I am originally from Connellsville, Pennsylvania. I graduated from Washington and Jefferson College in May of 2006. I decided to service as a VISTA in Montgomery because I felt that there was a lot of work to be done in disaster response and recovery. Hopefully I can make a difference and have a memorable year.”

I am a native of Arlington Heights, Illinois and am a recent graduate of Augustana College (Illinois) with a degree in Geography. I will be working as an AmeriCorps *VISTA member in the Governor’s Office of Faith Based and Community Initiatives, working to encourage new and continue current preparedness efforts throughout the state. It is an exciting prospect to be working through such a multifaceted organization to promote service and support for our local communities.
