Blog

Vermonters – are you looking for a way to put your ideals of gender, racial, and economic justice into action? The Vermont Commission on Women has one opening for a new member, to start immediately.

We’re seeking people of all genders and backgrounds who are passionate about dismantling structural inequities; dedicated to improving economic, social, health, and legal conditions for women; and committed to a vision of Vermont that embraces all its citizens.

VCW is an independent, nonpartisan state agency dedicated to advancing rights and opportunities for women in Vermont. Commission members guide our work, set priorities and direction, and establish policy positions. Commissioners are volunteers, but are usually eligible for per diem compensation and mileage reimbursement.

Our work is best when a rich array of voices is included. People of color, people from working-class backgrounds, people with disabilities, men, young people, and LGBTQ+ people are encouraged to apply.

For more information, please email Cary Brown cary.brown@vermont.gov, or apply directly through Governor Phil Scott’s online application.
