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 August 29, 2025, we have had 364,900+ views on our YouTube channel and 2,486 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

One of the things I love about Vermont is that there are folks within so many layers of both state and nonprofit organizations who believe in the importance of language justice. This is borne out in the inquiries we are continuing to receive about our work to produce videos for people who have language access needs. It's impressive because at this time in history, I know it's not easy to keep on advocating for what is right. Please know that we see you, respect and admire you, and you are very much appreciated. Have a good month.

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
