ACCESS FOR ALL

Making Healthy Living Accessible to Everyone

WHAT IS ACCESS FOR ALL?

The Edgar May Health and Recreation Center is committed to promoting the health and wellbeing of all area residents regardless of income. We offer financial assistance for memberships and most programs through our Access For All program to individuals and families who qualify. Funding for this program is made available through a variety of public and private organizations throughout Vermont and New Hampshire.

The Access For All program can be utilized to pay for memberships and programs such as group fitness and aquatic classes, swimming lessons, Adventure Camp, Swim Team, Prescription for Wellness, and more.

SLIDING SCALE FEES

All EdgarMay members are expected to pay their fair share of operating costs. The EdgarMay determines Access for All applicants’ assistance through our Sliding Fees Scale. The amount of assistance is determined by family size and household income. Applicants may receive assistance of 20-75% for membership and program fees.
