On May 13th, Vermont released health guidelines for child care programs that go into effect on June 1. You can view these guidelines which are 13 pages long here: https://www.healthvermont.gov/sites/default/files/documents/pdf/COVID19-Health-Guidance-for-Childcare-Afterschool-Summer-Programs.p

Below are 2 news clips from Vermont’s TV Station WCAX 3. The first discusses that some Vermont child care centers worry about meeting these reopening health guidelines. You can watch that report below. Underneath that video, is a second news report from the same station about child care workers who protested Vermont’s reopening strategy.

Some Vermont child care providers signed onto a letter asking Vermont’s Governor Scott to delay reopening on child care. You can read the whole letter here: https://actionnetwork.org/letters/childcare-is-not-safe-to-open-if-public-school-is-not-safe-to-open?source=direct_link&
