Community Resource Center

We lost our location during the summer flood in 2023 and are excited to share that we’ve found a new home to house the CRC this coming March. In the meantime, we are operating at the Food Pantry and a shared conference room space with VT League of Cities and Towns inside the City Center.

We’ve teamed up Kimberly Pierce and The Vermont Kindness Project to offer a free drop-in resource/resilience space. Coming soon, this pilot program will provide a space to enjoy light refreshments while learning about the impacts of stress and gaining skills to build personal and family resilience. Enjoy short films, arts and crafts and find out about other local healing events around town.
