The VT FaMLI Coalition is hosting a series of film previews and panel discussions to highlight the need for a statewide family and medical leave insurance program. The events will be held:

October 5th, 7:00pm - 8:30pm, Main Street Landing in Burlington
October 12th, 7:00pm - 8:30pm, Latchis Theatre in Brattleboro
October 19th, 7:00pm - 8:30pm, Catamount Arts in St. Johnsbury
October 25th, 7:00pm - 8:30pm, Middlebury College (Kirk Room) in Middlebury
Weaving powerful stories together with insightful interviews from leading policy makers, economists, and researchers, ZERO WEEKS lays out a compelling argument for guaranteed paid leave for every American worker.

Following the film preview, the panel discussions feature local business owners, legislators, and community members who discuss the opportunity for paid family and medical leave in Vermont. Attendees will have an opportunity to ask questions of the panel.

The events are free and open to the public. If you would like to attend one of the film previews and following discussion please RVSP by emailing ashley@mainstreetalliance.org
