Redefining “Vermont Strong”

Vermonters continue to face climate-related challenges like powerful storms and warming temperatures, all while navigating shifting economies and new policies. We must act now to protect our treasured people and places. Join us for the first Resilient Vermont Network conference and gear up for the challenge.

This interactive event will bring together community leaders, municipal officials, organizations and agencies working to strengthen Vermont’s resilience to climate change and other challenges. Gain the skills, ideas, inspiration, connections and resources for on-the-ground action to make us all stronger, more vibrant, and better prepared.

Let’s make Vermont stronger, together.
Join us in May.


We want to hear from you! Send us:

Conference sessions: We want to feature your work, stories, challenges and your solutions. This is an action-focused conference, so as much as possible we’re crowdsourcing breakout sessions, trainings, field trips and workshops that will help people take action and improve resilience.
Case studies: We’re seeking great ideas and innovations in resilience! We’re looking for a few stories of projects that make our communities and environment safer and better prepared for climate-related challenges. These replicable, innovative, and impactful projects will help shape the conference!

We’re eager to involve as many Network members as possible, and welcome your ideas and participation. Please get in touch if you’d like to help plan the conference, offer a session, sponsor the event, or get involved in other ways. Contact us at:[email protected]
