Fall Highlights with Our Community

This fall saw us out and about at community outreach events! From painting pumpkins with SaVida Health to decorating cookies at the Turning Point Center, we met jobseekers where they were at — and had fun doing it. 
We also participated in several inclusive employment events, from Vermont's statewide human resources conference to recovery-friendly workplace panels in New Hampshire and Maine. 
Check out this article spotlighting the zero-barrier work being done in Burlington at King St Laundry!

Mental Health Equity Survey for Clients & Providers

Are you a recipient or provider of mental health, substance use disorder, or related support services in Vermont? This message is for you. 
The Vermont Department of Health, in collaboration with the Vermont Cooperative for Practice Improvement and Innovation (VCPI), is conducting a statewide study to better understand the experiences of Vermonters with substance use and mental health services. 
There are two survey tracks. The first is open to service recipients — anyone who has sought or engaged with services from a health care provider in Vermont — and is available in 4 languages. The other is open to providers.
