Worshippers at the Islamic Society of Vermont in Colchester.

Earlier in July, Imam Islam Hassan assumed his new position as the imam of the Islamic Center of Cleveland. That's only of interest to us here because Hassan leaves behind the Islamic Society of Vermont in Colchester, where he was the first imam for a growing Vermont Islamic community.Vermont Edition talks with Taysir al-Khatib, president of the Islamic Society of Vermont, about the community's search for a new imam, and the impact Imam Hassan had here.
