The Volunteer Income Tax Assistance (VITA) program provides tax preparation assistance for the elderly, low or moderate-income, and individuals with physical, emotional, or cognitive challenges. This program provides volunteers with a comprehensive training and certification program that covers the online preparation system and relevant tax law. This would be an excellent experiential learning opportunity for upper-level students to gain knowledge, a certification, and valuable work experience…all while serving a critical service need in our community! The certification is all online and can be self-paced. The sponsoring nonprofit, Community Action Wayne/Medina, would then provide a hands-on orientation, and students would have access to the project coordinator at any time if there were questions.
