Who We Are

Vermont Public is an independent community-supported public media organization, serving Vermont with trusted, relevant and essential information. We share stories that bring people together.

We produce award-winning news, music and programming that connect our audiences with issues, ideas and each other. We provide access to trusted content from NPR, PBS, and other national producers. And we offer educational programs and resources for educators and families.

Our programming and services are broadly available for free on our statewide radio and television broadcast networks, digital platforms, social media and in communities throughout our region.

We are a locally owned and operated community licensee, which means that our license is owned by the community, not a university or a governmental agency. Our primary source of funding — more than half — comes from more than 40,000 members making donations in all amounts.

Our Mission:

To broaden and diversify our audience through relevant, trusted information and stories that bring people and communities together.

Our Vision:

A Vermont public informed, engaged and inspired to create our future.

Thank you.

As we step forward into 2024, I wanted to pause and thank you for your support over the last year. Our state went through a lot in 2023. Through it all, you put your trust in Vermont Public to bring you deep, essential news to help navigate our complex world, provide learning opportunities for kids, families and educators, and curate music and programming that provided emotional space for us to breathe and process the complexity of our time.

We do not take your confidence for granted; in fact, it strengthens our resolve. We are reminded that what we offer to our community is unique and essential, and it’s your generous support that fuels our public service.

This 2023 Community Impact Report details some of the work our community of supporters made possible last year. While it reflects on the past, it’s also a roadmap for our future. Together with you, we enter 2024 with excitement and curiosity, ready to bring you more stories and content that inform, inspire, educate and connect us all. 

We’re grateful that you’re part of this journey, and we’ll be here with you for whatever comes next.

Stories from Every Corner: Your Impact

Trusted Journalism

  • Flooding & Flood Recovery

    In July, historic flooding caused a statewide emergency of dizzying magnitude. Vermont Public provided life-saving public safety journalism and resources to audiences across platforms, and we continue to report on recovery efforts.

  • Recognized

    ‘Recognized’ is a special series from Brave Little State about Abenaki peoples and the ongoing dispute about who belongs to their communities. The three-part series examines contested claims of the legitimacy of Vermont’s four state-recognized tribes: the Abenaki Nation of Missisquoi, the Elnu Abenaki Tribe, the Koasek Traditional Band of the Koas Abenaki Nation and the Nulhegan Band of the Coosuck Abenaki Nation.

  • Expanding Housing & Infrastructure Coverage

    Carly Berlin joined Vermont Public and VTDigger as a Report For America corps member to expand coverage of housing and infrastructure in Vermont. Berlin covers two of the most vexing challenges facing the state: the availability, affordability and condition of housing, as well as aging infrastructure that is no longer serving its residents.

  • Sen. Leahy’s Retirement

    Senator Patrick Leahy retired from public office in January 2023, and our reporters and production crew were in Washington, DC to document his final days in the halls of the Capitol. In two wide-ranging conversations, Jane Lindholm spoke with Leahy to understand how he frames his nearly half-century-long career as a Vermont senator, and what he hopes his legacy will be.

  • What Class Are You?

    Erica Heilman traveled Vermont asking what she called an "awkward and probably offensive question.” In “What class are you?” we hear from people from all sorts of backgrounds about money, class and privilege.

  • An old man in a plaid shirt stands next to a granite sculpture of a young man carrying a bundle of sticks, next to a little girl, holding a dog.

    Giuliano Cecchinelli, Barre’s last Italian stone carver

    The Italian sculptors who immigrated during Barre's granite boom have died, retired, or moved away. Only one is left. In this audio documentary, we meet Giuliano Cecchinelli.

  • Climate Across America

    Vermont Public partnered with NOVA to produce and distribute two short digital films as part of the series’ national Climate Across America initiative. Vermont Public was one of 10 public media stations working closely with NOVA to create, share, and amplify solutions-oriented climate reporting. Our stories explored how biodigesters work as well as what it would be like to take an entire town off the grid.

  • Community News Service

    Vermont Public partnered with UVM’s Community News Service to provide students the opportunity to learn the craft of audio reporting while expanding the range of voices and stories heard on the air. Twelve students worked with Vermont Public editors and reporters to produce 23 pieces over the course of the year.

  • What put Vermont on the cultural map?

    Brave Little State is Vermont Public’s listener-driven journalism project. In this episode, we answered a listener question inspired by a song you might have heard: "Stick Season" by Vermont musician Noah Kahan. The question led to a March Madness-inspired bracket to determine the greatest cultural icon to come out of our state.

  • Out There

    Vermont Public launched Out There, an email newsletter featuring climate and environmental stories from across the state, plants, animals and fungi you might encounter on your next stroll, and outdoor happenings you can take part in.

Music, Arts & Culture

  • Homegoings

    Vermont Public expanded its Homegoings series into a standalone podcast. The show invites listeners to candid and genuine conversations about race. Host and Executive Producer Myra Flynn explores themes that fearlessly straddle the line between necessary and uncomfortable, as she speaks with artists, experts and regular folks all over the country about their literal skin in the game — of everyday life.

  • Made Here Fund

    Vermont Public awarded Made Here Fund grants to ten local content producers as part of its initiative to broaden and diversify storytelling in Vermont. The creators represent six Vermont counties and their projects will range from short documentaries and short animated films, to digital video series and podcasts.

  • Expanded Classical Access

    Vermont Public Classical, Vermont’s only classical music radio network, expanded its broadcast coverage with new stations in Lyndonville at 91.5 FM and in West Rutland at 107.5 FM.

  • Exploring Black Composers on Timeline

    Timeline from Vermont Public Classical, a podcast about the history of western music, took deep dives into the lives and work of Black composers, including a ten-part series about composer Julius Eastman and a five-part series of Joseph Bologne, Chevalier de Saint-Georges.

  • Summer Concert Series

    Vermont Public Classical hosted a series of live performance broadcasts throughout the summer, welcoming musicians from Vermont's bounty of summer music festivals to perform in Stetson Studio One.

Youth & Education

As a PBS member station, Vermont Public is proud to provide PBS KIDS’ trusted, non-commercial, educational shows and activities for kids. PBS KIDS programming is available on broadcast TV weekdays on our main channel, 24/7 on our dedicated Kids channel where available, or streaming via smart TV or mobile app.

Vermont Public continues to work with partners like the Vermont Agency of Education, Vermont Department of Libraries and ECHO Leahy Center for Lake Champlain to reach families and educators looking for safe, playful learning media connections.

Our teacher-directed Education Ambassadors connect Vermont educators with free, standards-based, multimedia teacher resources available from Vermont Public and PBS.

We added new partnerships with the Clemmons Family Farm and NOVA/GBH, expanding media resources across various content areas for Grades K-12.

Our PBS LearningMedia teacher usage remained constant in 2023 reaching 11,800 educators.

New national to local opportunities have included work with NPR’s Student Podcast Challenge and NOVA’s Science Studio projects that connect media creation to the classroom for a new, younger, public media audience.

But Why launched But Why: Adventures, a video series for grades 3-5 that explores the science behind what’s happening in the northeastern U.S. landscape each month, offering educators and students an opportunity to find science in their own backyards.
