Welcome to the Vermont Language Justice Project
The Vermont Language Justice Project allows people with language access needs the ability to make informed decisions about their health and safety, as well as navigating everyday life in the USA. We do this by creating public service videos in 21 of the languages spoken here in Vermont. This media is co-produced with trusted community members from Vermont’s refugee, migrant, and immigrant communities. These messages are shared widely through YouTube, WhatsApp and with over 200 community partners. As of October 30th 2025, we have 382,800+ views on our YouTube channel and 2,587 subscribers.
In May 2025, VLJP launched iFY, a new mobile phone app, to make it easier for people to access and find our hundreds of videos. Learn more and download iFY here.

A Message from the Director of VLJP
These past few months have seen a rush to make videos in collaboration with Hunger Free Vermont on all the changes/cuts to SNAP benefits. Early, on October 30th we were given a script to make videos in 17 languages on the cutting of SNAP benefits due to the federal government shut down and how the State of Vermont would continue to pay folks. In less than 24 hours we had produced the 17 videos and distributed the links throughout Vermont. This speaks to the dedication and commitment of our translators to work for the good of their communities and the ability VLJP has in an emergency to get the word out to folks who rely on us to provide them the information they need. Our translators are VLJP's biggest assets, and we so appreciate them.
In solidarity,
Alison
We cannot build the world we want, if we cannot see the world we want. Imagination is the engine, the fuel which brings our stories to life. It is our life force, our hope, that we may change the world from what it is to what it could be.
Imagination is the passport to our future.” JJBola
