Healthy Lamoille Valley is pleased to offer prevention sponsorships to the Lamoille Valley community, made available from the Region 3 Vermont Prevention Lead Organization grant, supporting prevention across the lifespan. This year we have $5,000 available to be given out in increments of $250 – $500, to be used by June 30th, 2026. If you need assistance or have questions, please email Coalition Coordinator Jessica Bickford at jessica@healthylamoillevalley.org.

Who can access these funds? Schools (Including clubs and sports teams), childcares, afterschool programs, libraries, municipalities, community third space organizations, community nonprofits (including sports clubs with a non-profit status), faith-based organizations, and individuals (you will need a fiscal sponsor, please reach out to us for more information).

This funding supports primary and secondary prevention across the lifespan. Regional priorities include reducing underage substance use, reducing adult high risk substance use, support for LGBTQ+ youth, and creating a community where youth and adults feel valued, connected, and supported.
