Vermont Digital Economy Project

Created by the Vermont Council on Rural Development, with the goal of constructing more resilient communities after the 2011 floods, the Vermont Digital Economy Project was a continuation and expansion of the work performed by e-Vermont. This Project offered free support to speed flood recovery, spur economic development and job growth, and improve community resilience to disasters.

In partnership with Vermont Digital Economy Project, The Snelling Center for Government assisted flood-impacted towns to redevelop and, in some cases, implement first time websites. As part of an Economic Development Administration Disaster Relief Grant, we worked with towns to: create websites that will engage the community, enable greater efficiency, make government more accessible to its citizens, promote economic prosperity, and build resilient communication channels to citizens in times of emergency.
