Welcoming Workplaces is an employer-oriented initiative that is part of BDCC’s “Welcoming Communities” program. Welcoming Communities is a series of initiatives and collaborative partnerships that seeks to make the region more welcoming for foreign-born workers, and non-citizen residents. It will improve how existing BDCC programs serve diverse stakeholders and launch new targeted activities through partnerships with employers and community-based organizations to help make the region more equitable and inclusive for current and future BIPOC community members. The long-term goal of Welcoming Communities is to build a community and economy that supports immigration and in-migration to southern Vermont to increase the vitality of our communities and strength of our workforce.
