Have you heard of the Richard Kemp Center? It is a cultural and community for Black Vermonters located in Burlington at the northern end of N Winooski Avenue in Burlington, across the street from the Community Health Center of Burlington. Their purpose is to create a space in Burlington where the Black Community's wellness, culture, and youth intersect. The Richard Kemp Center expands programs and services that support Black Vermonters' wellness, preserve their culture, support their youth and advance racial equity and justice.
