Notes

Special consideration will be given to proposals that foster Justice, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion in physical fitness activities and sports, particularly for BIPOC and traditionally underserved populations. Although several aspects of wellness (i.e. mental health, social well-being) will be considered, special consideration will be given to those including physical activity as a primary component.The Vermont Healthy Community Design Resource provides guidance on developing programs and services that best address the physical activity needs and wants of your community.
