Organization's Approach to Diversity, Equity, Belonging, & Inclusion

The Vermont Department of Tourism and Marketing is committed to identify, remove, and reform barriers that prevent people of all backgrounds and abilities from connecting with Vermont as a tourism destination. With an awareness that we are on the land of ancestral stewards, we know the important role that government has to increase meaningful inclusion and representation. We recognize that there is much work to do, and we are committed to being a leader and collaborator on local and statewide efforts to advance equity and accessibility in Vermont.
