  • Vermont PBS Announces President and CEO Holly Groschner to Retire Groschner Led Station’S Turnaround
    10 East Allen Street, Suite 202, Winooski, VT 05404 Phone: (802) 655-4800 Toll Free: 1-800-639-7811 vermontpbs.org For Immediate Release Friday, May 1, 2020 Contact: [email protected] | 802-338-2556 Vermont PBS Announces President and CEO Holly Groschner To Retire Groschner Led Station’s Turnaround WINOOSKI, Vt. - Vermont PBS has announced the retirement of Holly Groschner, President & CEO, at the end of current fiscal year, June 30, 2020. Ms. Groschner has served the public media station since February 14, 2015. During her tenure, the station recognized growth in audience, membership, local programming, and community financial support, recapturing its status as a thriving community resource for Vermont. The Vermont PBS Board of Directors has formed a search committee for a national search process to identify Groschner’s successor. Steve Ferreira, appointed by Groschner last September as the station’s Chief Operating Officer, will assume the role of interim CEO following a full board vote at the next meeting of the Board of Directors. “We thank Holly for her dedicated service, leadership and vision,” said Marguerite Dibble, Vermont PBS Board Chair. “When Holly joined Vermont PBS, she agreed to stay for three years. Five years later and now stronger than ever, the Board and Staff of Vermont PBS look toward our next chapter of service to Vermonters.” Highlights of Groschner’s leadership include: • Spearheaded the station’s 2019 relocation to new headquarters in Winooski’s Town Center, including a financial investment in technical upgrades for improved broadcast reliability and expanded digital production technology. • Shifted a 3-5% annual decline in membership to growth of 4-5%, with an increase in average annual donations of 3.7% over the same period.

(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.

    Corporation for Public Broadcasting Stabilization Funding Request and Justification FY 2021 Submitted to the Office of Management and Budget and to the House and Senate Appropriations Subcommittees on Labor, Health and Human Services, Education, and Related Agencies January 26, 2021 Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB) FY 2021 Stabilization Funding Request STATEMENT OF NEED AND REQUEST The Corporation for Public Broadcasting (“CPB”) is very appreciative of the $75 million in stabilization funding in the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act of 2020. This financial assistance was vital in providing stability to our nation’s public media system during the early months of the crisis. Today, we request an additional $175 million in stabilization funding to ensure the continued viability of public media stations during this period of extraordinary economic hardship. Although our data indicates that public media’s stabilization needs exceed $400 million, we are mindful of the difficult decisions the new Administration and Congress must make during this time. CPB’s mission is to ensure universal access to high-quality, non-commercial content and telecommunications services that educate, inform and enrich the public. Further, in many states and local communities, public media stations’ digital and broadcast infrastructure provide the backbone for emergency alert, public safety, first responder and homeland security services. If stations are forced to cut additional jobs or further reduce content and services, their
