On Monday, Nov 17th, and Thurs, November 20th, eight regional events were held, bringing together clergy, lay people of faith, and legislators to enter into a dialogue about how Vermont’s budgeting process and other legislation can be more aligned with the group’s shared faith values of justice and compassion. The Clergy Caucus of VIA has come to a consensus on policy recommendations on Collection and Allocation of Resources and Wages and Benefits. Click here to download the document.
