Prior to the arrival of two new members, a supervisor asked former and current VISTA members on Reddit three questions: What can I do to make them have a great year? What have your supervisors done to make you feel valued? Where have your supervisors gone wrong? Join us to hear details about the top eight retention strategies recommended by VISTA members. This interactive webinar will include strategy sharing activities to exchange ideas with your peers via the chat feature and over the phone.
