In Barre, residents gathered to share stories as Washington County became the U.S. leader in federal disaster declarations over the past decade. Advocates pushed for a law holding fossil fuel companies accountable for climate-driven disasters, while many locals lament the politicized and insufficient federal aid process. With over 100 flood-damaged properties still waiting for FEMA buyouts and critical infrastructure repairs stalled, towns like Plainfield face long-term economic decline. Doctors report clinic isolation, and survivors like Corinne Cooper describe lingering trauma — a reminder that recovery isn’t just physical, it’s emotional and enduring.
