SOUTH ROYALTON — Five Vermont Law School students are among the 2015-16 class of Albert Schweitzer Fellows who will develop and implement service projects to tackle health inequities in underserved communities. Following the example set by famed physician-humanitarian Albert Schweitzer, for whom the program is named, VLS students Jessica Bullock, Ana Cimino, Catlin Davis, Ivy Garlow and Yaunek Murray will spend the next year learning to effectively address social factors that influence health. They are among 30 graduate students from Vermont and New Hampshire who will join the ranks of Schweitzer Fellows working at program sites across the United States and in Lambaréné, Gabon, at the site of the Albert Schweitzer Hospital. Schweitzer Fellows fulfill their academic responsibilities as full-time students while designing and implementing unique service projects to address the root causes of health disparities in under-resourced communities. Each project is implemented in collaboration with a community-based organization. Below are the project summaries for the 2015-16 Vermont Law School Schweitzer Fellows: Bullock will work to provide public speaking and debate-training programs to inmates incarcerated in Vermont. The SPEAK Prison Debate Initiative’s six-week debate program utilizes debate as a tool for teaching professional and personal public speaking and presentation skills. Community site: Chittenden Regional Correctional Facility Cimino will provide an advocacy program empowering youth survivors of child abuse and/or witnesses of domestic violence to find their own space to heal and to open a dialogue on healthy relationships through art, dance, community projects, music and other youth projects. Community site: TBD Davis will provide in-home support to new mothers in order to prevent postpartum depression. Her project matches new mothers with community volunteers who help with basic tasks so the new mother can care for her own needs. Community site: Good Beginnings of Central Vermont Working with the Vermont Refugee Resettlement Program, Garlow will engage with newly resettled refugees in Vermont. This project will entail developing and presenting cultural integration materials, including basic domestic law information, in refugees’ native languages. Community site: Vermont Refugee Resettlement Program Murray’s project aims to address physical and mental health needs of seniors and the elderly through low-impact fitness and group activities. Methods used will be cardiovascular and stretching exercises, dancing, meditation and group-selected games. Community site: Southwestern Vermont Council on Aging Fellows work under the close guidance of community and academic mentors during their fellowship year. Moose lottery BARRE — Vermont’s lottery for moose hunting permits closed June 17, but there’s one more opportunity to get a permit for this fall’s moose hunt. Vermont’s auction for five moose hunting permits is open until 4:30 p.m. Aug. 13. Bids will be opened and winners notified on Aug. 14. Auction winners will hunt in one of several wildlife management units (WMUs) open to moose hunting, and choose to hunt during the Oct. 1-7 archery season, or in the Oct. 17-22 regular season. Vermont’s 2014 Moose Harvest Report on Fish & Wildlife’s website has details on last year’s hunt, including the towns where moose were taken. Look under moose hunting. Bids must be entered with a sealed bid form available from Vermont Fish & Wildlife. A minimum bid of $1,500 is required, and winning bids are typically at least $4,000. Bids do not include the cost of a hunting license (residents $25, nonresidents $100) or moose hunting permit fee ($100 for residents and $350 for nonresidents). Additional information about the auction is on the Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department’s website (www.vtfishandwildlife.com). Moose permit bid packets can be obtained by calling Fish & Wildlife at 802-828-1190 or by emailing (cheri.waters@state.vt.us). Proceeds from the moose hunting permit auction help fund Vermont Fish & Wildlife educational programs. The lottery drawing for 225 regular moose season permits and 40 archery season permits will be held at 10 a.m. on July 16 at the Barre Fish and Game Club in Barre. Recipes for Success BARRE — All across the Northeast, Farm to School programming is helping to grow healthier kids and communities. And four Vermont projects are leading the charge. These creative Farm to School projects and activities are among the 10 in a regional “Recipes for Success” contest. They were recently featured at the first Northeast Farm to Institution Summit in Amherst, Massachusetts, and are now included in a free online cookbook designed to share replicable Farm to School projects. Melissa Axelrod from Washington South Supervisory Union was a runnerup in the contest, recognized for her project, Farm to Protein, which is a classroom activity that includes nutrition education, a visit from a farmer and chicken, and a hands-on cooking activity. She will receive $100 cash to benefit her Farm to School work. Other Vermont authors honored include Laura Collaro and Kathy Alexander of Addison Northeast Supervisory Union Food Service Cooperative; Deirdre Holmes of Charlotte Central School’s Farm to School program; and Caelan Keenan and Holidae Filkins of the Vermont Youth Conservation Corps. The winning recipes include activities and projects for classrooms, cafeterias and communities and can all be found for free at www.farmtoinstitution.org/f2s-recipes. They integrate farm, food and nutrition education into schools and communities, empowering children and their families to make informed food choices. Schools or communities interested in starting a Farm to School program can visit the Vermont FEED website at www.vtfeed.org.
