The Vermont Department of Health has a WhatsApp channel that we are using to share or “broadcast” translated materials. As of now, we are trying to post bilingual posts once a week to correspond with seasonal themes. We will be highlighting different languages to get the attention of non-English users. The goal is to give community partners and members an easier way to find trusted material, especially during an emergency.
