VCLN Federal Transition for Rural Communities

Описание: On April 3rd 2025, over 100 Vermonters joined the VT Community Leadership Network discussion of the impacts of the recent federal transition. How has it affected our communities, local volunteer groups, nonprofits, businesses and municipal and regional services? We heard from non-partisan statewide leaders to learn how they are adapting, including Melissa Bounty from CVEDC, Chris Cochran from DHCD, Martin Hahn from Common Good VT, and Bonnie Waninger from VLCT. Then we moved into breakout groups so that the audience could ask each other questions, learn about each other's experience, and build supportive connections. Find a transcript of the chat and the resources shared throughout the meeting in this document.
