Vermont has a unique network of organizations that works to marshal resources to build and maintain housing across the state. These include State Agencies, non-profit organizations, for-profit developers and quasi-governmental organizations. The Department of Housing and Community Development works with all of them in some capacity to ensure resources are used efficiently and housing needs are being addressed.
