Join the Vermont Young Democrats

, on 
On May 12th, the founders and Board of Directors of the Vermont Young Democrats joined the Vermont Democratic Party at the University of Vermont’s Davis Center for the 24th Annual Curtis-Hoff Dinner.


During the event, co-founders Giovanni Falco (President) and Anna Tadio (General Counsel) met with leaders across the state to launch Vermont’s first chapter of the Young Democrats. The Young Democrats of America is “the largest youth-led, partisan political organization in the nation and serves as the national federation for all state and territorial Young Democrat chapters.”

Anyone below the age of 36 can be a Young Democrat. Currently, Vermont is not one of the 49 U.S. States and Territories with an officially recognized chapter. The organization is getting young Democratic Vermonters engaged in their communities and with politics on the local, state, and federal levels.

At the event, President Falco and Attorney Tadio met with Former Lieutenant Governor Molly Gray, U.S. Representative Becca Balint, Executive Director of Emerge Vermont Elaine Haney, and others to discuss the future of the organization and how we can work together to engage young people in Vermont.

“We hear from politicians across the state that more and more young Vermonters are leaving, yet we provide limited opportunities for students and young adults to engage with their communities, join an organization, or fight for a cause that matters to them,” said Giovanni Falco, co-founder and President of the Vermont Young Democrats. “This organization will provide young people with the tools, resources, and voice to build a Vermont that helps keep folks in the state by engaging in civic discourse. This is not only beneficial to the longevity of the party but for the future of Vermont.”
