Addison Alliance Network (AAN) is a community organization in Middlebury, VT that provides farm workers with rides, in addition to other services, such as English language teaching and social integration. This group is supported by Champlain Valley Unitarian Universalist Society and lead by Veronica Ciambra, who personally coordinates Addison County residents who volunteer to drive farm workers to various destinations.

The Spring 2018 Middlebury College ENVS0401 course wrote a grant to help AAN establish a more sustainable dispatch system and to compensate their drivers. Currently, AAN dispatch rides on an individual level which requires a lot of time and energy. The grant will also help outreach the transportation system to farm workers across Addison County.
