Our Framework

  • Equity means fairness. It’s about making sure everyone has what they need to succeed — not just giving everyone the same thing, but giving each person the right support for their unique situation. Equity helps level the playing field so everyone can thrive.

  • Marginalized identities are groups of people who are too often pushed to the edges of society, ignored, or left out of decision-making. This can include people of color, LGBTQ+ folks, people with disabilities, immigrants, and others whose voices are not always heard.

  • Because everyone deserves a fair shot. When we focus on equity, we:

    • Reduce barriers that keep people from reaching their full potential

    • Build stronger, healthier, and more connected communities

    • Make sure no one gets left behind — especially those who have been left out before

  • Living in rural Vermont already has challenges: transportation, isolation, and access to resources can be difficult. For people with marginalized identities, those challenges can be even bigger.

  • The Lamoille Equity Team (LET) is here to help make sure everyone — especially those who often get overlooked — has the support, resources, and opportunities they need. Our purpose is to strengthen our community by promoting love, inclusion and trust through education, sharing information, raising awareness and action. Our goal is to make Lamoille County a place where everyone feels valued, included, and able to thrive.
