In the next few weeks, Building Bright Futures will host a series of in-person regional candidate forums across Vermont. All are welcome. These forums are an opportunity for families, the early childhood workforce, and community members to hear from local candidates for Vermont’s House and Senate about where they stand on issues related to children and families.
Candidates will be asked about issues that matter to Vermont families and communities, including questions about economic security, housing, early childhood workforce shortages, and access to prekindergarten programs.
