Vermont Business Magazine On Thursday, January 15, HomeShare Vermont is hosting an Open House in St. Johnsbury to celebrate its recent expansion across the Northeast Kingdom and to introduce the new local team serving the region.
Local residents are invited to attend the event from 1-3 p.m. at St. Johnsbury House, 1207 Main St., St. Johnsbury, to meet staff and learn more about the organization’s homesharing program.
HomeShare Vermont recently expanded services to all of Orleans, Caledonia and Essex Counties, bringing homesharing support to residents and marking a new chapter for the organization’s work in the Northeast Kingdom. The expansion became a reality through a partnership with the Northeast Kingdom Council on Aging and additional funding from the State's Department of Aging and Independent Living.
“Expanding into the Northeast Kingdom is an important step for HomeShare Vermont, and we’re excited to introduce the local team who will be doing this work in the community,” said Connor Timmons, executive director of HomeShare Vermont. “For more than 40 years, homesharing has helped Vermonters stay in their homes and build meaningful connections. This Open House is a chance to share how that model can support people across the Northeast Kingdom.”
The Open House is made possible with support from Efficiency Vermont.
HomeShare Vermont uses a comprehensive screening and matching process that considers individual needs, interests and lifestyles for both hosts and guests. Hosts may receive rent, help around their home, or a combination of the two. Guests currently pay an average of $379 per month in rent and provide an average of 8.5 hours of help each week.
