  • Vermont PBS and VPR Have Officially Merged New Brand Will Launch in Early 2022
    Alison Kosakowski Conant AKConant Communications (802) 825-1312 [email protected] FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Vermont PBS and VPR Have Officially Merged New Brand will Launch in Early 2022 Winooski and Colchester, Vt. (July 1, 2021)— Effective today, Vermont PBS and Vermont Public Radio have merged to become a unified public media organization dedicated to community service. The Vermont PBS and VPR boards of directors first announced their intention to merge last September. “Together, we can reach out to new audiences, so we live up to our vision of being a place for everyone,” said CEO Scott Finn. “This merger allows us to expand our offerings while continuing the services our existing supporters depend on every day.” Finn will lead the new, integrated organization alongside COO Steve Ferreira. Nicole Junas Ravlin chairs the new board of directors, and Marguerite Dibble serves as vice chair. “This past year has really demonstrated how much the community relies on us to share the arts, news, education, culture, local storytelling, and create connections,” said Junas Ravlin. “It’s never been more important to strengthen public media.” “Service, inclusion, and engagement will be at the heart of everything we do,” added Dibble. A new leadership team, composed of executives from both of the legacy organizations, has been named, and the staff has been reorganized into teams with a focus on service, inclusion and community engagement. No staff positions were eliminated as a result of this merger. The former headquarters of each organization, located in Winooski and Colchester, will be retained, with integrated teams staffing both locations.

  • From the President of Vpr
    FROM THE PRESIDENT OF VPR Dear VPR Listener, 2011 has been another successful year for Vermont Public Radio, and on behalf of all of us at the station, I want to express my appreciation to you and everyone else that listens and contributes to VPR. At a time when newsrooms are shrinking and classical music is disappearing from the radio, Vermont Public Radio is more essential and relevant than ever for news, information, music, and cultural exploration. In the first year of a new three-year strategic plan, we increased our local news coverage, strengthened our music programming, began ambitious initiatives on VPR.net, and improved our overall service to the community. I want to take this opportunity to share some of the accomplishments that listener support made possible over the past year. VPR: VPR News continued to expand and deepen its coverage this year. Most significantly, our coverage of the aftermath of Tropical Storm Irene provided critical information to people in need during a very difficult time, as well as many opportunities to share stories and connect with each other through expanded Vermont Edition programs. A special section of VPR.net aggregated news stories, photos, and links to resources like road closures and volunteer opportunities. VPR News also continued its contribution to discussions of public policy and important issues facing the state, including Vital Signs, our extensive examination of the health care system, a series about the University of Vermont, an exploration of race as part of Vermont Reads: To Kill A Mockingbird, and coverage of the historic spring flooding in our region.
