BRATTLEBORO â A refugee resettlement center proposed in Brattleboro is being looked at as a way to add workers, volunteers, diversity and vibrancy to the community.
âWeâve highlighted this as an initiative weâd like to see expanded,â Gov. Phil Scott said when asked about the project at his weekly news conference Tuesday. âWeâve asked for more allotment from the federal government and hopefully, weâll be able to move forward with that.â
Scott called every aspect of the project âbeneficial to Vermont.â
âWe need more people, we need more diversity and I think this is a step in the right direction,â he said.
