December 18th, 2025 - Return-to-Work & Making Ends Meet
On this episode of Vermont Viewpoint, David first talks with Steve Howard, Executive Director of the Vermont State Employee Association VSEA, about Governor Scott’s return-to-commute executive work order and what it means for state employees as well as Vermonters access to services. We will also discuss federal cuts and how that will impact Vermonters both through state programs and adjacent organizations such as the Community Action network across the state. Then, David will be joined by Alison Calderara, Executive Director of Capstone Community Action, and Liz Scharf, Director of Capstones Community Economic Development and Food Security, to discuss how Capstone has been helping central Vermonters make ends meet for over 60 years through programs like emergency food and heating assistance, housing counseling, financial coaching, workforce development, headstart and more.This episode of Vermont Viewpoint was published 12/18/2025.
