Vermont Afterschool is a statewide nonprofit dedicated to ensuring that the children and youth in every Vermont community are able to benefit from the power of afterschool, summer learning, and third space programs during the out-of-school time hours. COMMENTING POLICY
Vermont Afterschool strives to create engaging content on Facebook in line with our mission. While we encourage people to share thoughts and opinions on Vermont Afterschool’s page and advertisements, the opinions and depicted results expressed in user-submitted comments are solely those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect those of VTA. However, we expect users will follow the rules of polite discourse, treating each other, as well as our employees, with respect by not posting content that falls into the following categories:
• Profanity and vulgar or abusive language
• Potentially slanderous or libelous statements
• Threats of any kind
• Sensitive information (for example, information that could compromise public safety)
• Offensive terms that target people based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, s*x, gender, s*xual orientation, disability or disease
• Images or other content that could threaten the safety or well-being of a child
• Content in violation of another’s intellectual property right, or any law or regulation
For the benefit of robust discussion, we ask that comments remain on-topic. Discussion should relate to the issue of the post and should not include:
• Off-topic comments
• Questions from the media
• Duplicate content
• Spam or other means of self-promotion or publicity. To ensure a positive experience for the community, we reserve the right to remove and report postings that contain objectionable or prohibited material.
