Get involved in Coalition Work!
We are excited to share our Goals & Activities for the year and are actively seeking folks to get involved in making this work happen!

Please email vtethnicstudies@gmail.com if you’d like to set up a one-on-one and learn where you can plug in! We encourage our allies to get involved locally and come out to our events.

Come out and Support Migrant Justice Oct 3rd
This Saturday, October 3rd, Migrant Justice and the Milk with Dignity Standards Council will release a report documenting the first two years of the Milk with Dignity Program. Covering hundreds of dairy workers, the program is achieving unprecedented transformations on dairy farms throughout Vermont and New York. We are excited to share a detailed report of these accomplishments.
October 3rd will mark three years since Ben & Jerry’s became the first company to join the Milk with Dignity Program and a full year since we first publicly called on supermarket chain Hannaford to follow suit. This Saturday we are organizing delegations to Hannaford stores around the region to deliver the Milk with Dignity report to store managers. You can sign up here!
