June Goodband has worked for over 30 years as a counselor, supporting people’s efforts to experience emotional wellbeing and live meaningful lives without addictive substances. She has seen how public policy affects people’s lives and witnessed how the strong influence of corporations on government has led to more and more people struggling to survive.
June is not interested in helping people adjust to a system that treats people like commodities to be used and thrown away. She is seeking election as Governor of the state of Vermont because she believes that in this small state we can make substantial changes that will send ripples around the nation. June wants to shift the focus of state government towards investing in people and communities and protecting our natural environment. We can do this by abandoning expensive strategies that don’t work, and creating a vibrant and resilient communities together.
