Vermont’s communities are stronger when we take care of each other. Sadly, 1 in 9 Vermonters copes with alcohol use disorder—and for those seeking help, there is a severe shortage of treatment options available. What message does this send to our neighbors who need help? As Tyler Ballard of CVOEO explains, we need to ensure that every Vermonter who wants to overcome alcohol use disorder has a humane and safe path to recovery.

The Public Health Response to Research is conducting a project supporting the Vermont Department of Health’s mission to address growing concerns around e-cigarette use through scientific research and public outreach. They collect and test va**ng products—both from retail sources and Vermont schools—to analyze their chemical contents and potential health risks. By collaborating with scientists nationwide and sharing findings with communities, educators, healthcare professionals, and policymakers, they aim to raise awareness and support effective local policy initiatives.

Starting October 1, 2026, you will only be able to get Medicaid in Vermont if you are:
A U.S. citizen or U.S. national.
In the United States legally, and are under 21 years old, pregnant, or were recently pregnant. This means anyone with Dr. Dynasaur.

A Cuban-Haitian Entrant.

On-demand showing of Screenagers: Under the Influence! You can watch the film anytime between June 5, 2026- June 19, 2026. DM or email us at [email protected], and we’ll send you the link.

In this film, Screenagers filmmaker Delaney Ruston picks up her camera to examine the impact of our digital age on teens' decision-making in relation to substances such as va**ng, drugs, and alcohol.

Exploring the latest research and learning more about the personal experiences of teens and families, the film highlights the changing landscape of the substances themselves, offering solutions for how we can best empower teens as they face decisions about what they will and will not be influenced by.

This event is made possible by the Winooski Partnership for Prevention, in partnership with Winooski School District and our generous funders.
