Vermont Public is an independent and community-supported public media organization, serving Vermont with trusted, award-winning journalism, internationally recognized kids’ programming, and locally hosted classical music. We also provide local access to national and international public television and radio programs from NPR, PBS, BBC and more.
Our programs, content, and resources are available statewide and beyond on our radio and television broadcast networks, digital platforms, and at events throughout the region.
Vermont Public is a community-owned and locally operated nonprofit, with no paywall and no subscription fee. Our primary source of funding — more than half — comes from nearly 40,000 members making donations in all amounts. Audience support makes our news and programming accessible for all.
Mission: Vermont Public informs, educates, and entertains through public service journalism and enlightening content rooted in Vermont. Our storytelling enriches lives and fosters community connection and understanding.
Vision: A public connected by understanding, no matter the distance between us.
