Whether you’re part of a school, business, organization, or just an individual, we invite everyone to get involved. You don’t need to organize a large event—individuals and smaller groups can still make a big impact, especially in high-impact areas.

Healthy Lamoille Valley is pleased to be able to once again offer prevention sponsorships to the Lamoille Valley community, made available from the Region 3 Vermont Prevention Lead Organization grant.
