The Vermont Humanities Council will use talks, living history presentations, lectures, reading and discussions series for both the general public and low-literacy groups, summer humanities camps for at-risk middle school youth, and grants to increase knowledge and understanding of American and Vermont history.

In 2008, Vermont Humanities Council (VHC) plans to use We the People (WTP) funds to build upon the successes of previous WTP grants. Between January 1, 2008 and December 31, 2008, VHC will use WTP funds in four previously-funded areas: public lectures and presentations, grants, reading and discussion programs, and humanities camps. Program offerings will be free and open to the public.
