Our History GMTC grew out of the Vermont Department of Education's HIV Prevention and Comprehensive School Health Program. As a nonprofit 501 (c) (3) community-based organization, GMTC was established in 1998 to respond to the growing health-related needs of schools and communities in Vermont and neighboring states. In January 2001, GMTC was launched as its own entity. Since then we have more than doubled the number of opportunities we offer, and our paid staff positions have risen from a part-time coordinator to three employees. To date GMTC has developed and delivered well over 85 trainings and events for over 3000 teachers, health educators, school staff, community members, and students throughout the state of Vermont. | |
