One fourth of Vermont kids live in households where no parent has full-time, year-round employment. Thirty percent of children live in households spending a third or more of their income on housing. And 7 percent of young people ages 16 to 19 are neither attending school nor working. These are some of the facts addressed by Voices for Vermont Children. We discuss the state of children in Vermont and the fight for equity of opportunity for all children. (November 7, 2018 broadcast — NO AUDIO)
