Community Development Network

The UVM/Burlington COPC convened a group of university and community people interested in ways that those of us involved in community development could support one another in our work (June 2000). Among the many ideas that came up was to share a variety of resources.

With this in mind, a summer Americorp intern, Brooks Bond-Watts, worked with the UVM/Burlington COPC identify important community development organizations and resources. These are listed below:
