Victoria Allison
Director of Teen Programs
Hi, I’m Victoria! I’m originally from Florida, and I moved to southern New Hampshire in 2025 after two years in Peru as a Youth Development Volunteer with the Peace Corps.Since I first got involved in nonprofit work, I’ve wanted a career that makes a difference in people’s lives, and that is part of why I joined the Peace Corps. Living in a rural community, learning a new culture and language, and teaching young people life skills was a life-changing experience.
I arrived here looking for an opportunity to keep doing impactful work with young people while also getting involved in my community. I first heard about The Grapevine and its amazing work through friends. The Grapevine’s mission immediately stood out to me. When the role as Director of Avenue A opened I knew it was something I wanted to be involved in.
I graduated from Eckerd College in St. Petersburg, Florida, with a bachelor’s degree in International Relations and Global Affairs. Before Peru, I worked in an array of human and social services positions, including anti trafficking NGOs, environmental protection organizations, summer camps, and youth leadership programs. When I don’t have my nose buried in a book, you can find me knitting my winter wardrobe or out exploring the New Hampshire wilderness.
I’m excited to bring that passion and commitment to youth to my role here as Director of Teen Programs. I want to continue to create a safe and inspiring space where teens can enjoy themselves, play, and learn new hobbies.
