Welcome to our Office of Racial Equity

The State of Vermont is dedicated to promoting equity and social justice. We aim to enhance inclusion and representation at all levels of government.

Equity is everyone’s job, and the Office of Racial Equity assists State agencies and departments advance equity in their work by providing training, policy guidance, and research.

The Office works with all three branches of State government to advocate for successful, inclusive policy and to identify disparities or opportunities to work toward collective liberation.
