Programs Available to Municipalities Homepage

Through the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA), the State of Vermont was issued over $1 billion in State Fiscal Recovery Funds (SFRF) to help the state recover from the pandemic. These funds are being used to provide historic investments throughout the State, with many SFR-funded programs already up and running. This page outlines current or upcoming programs available to Vermont municipalities or targeted toward Vermont communities. More programs will continue to be made available.
