The program uses best practices that promote safe and healthy contact during parental incarceration; ensures necessary supports are in place for the family; and improves the capacity for our systems to meet with these families. The program includes services in the women's facility, as well as community-based supports for caregivers and children. Lund provides training, education, and consultation about the impact of parental incarceration and best practices for supporting children and families to Vermont Department of Corrections staff, schools, community-based agencies, and other groups to enhance community-wide understanding of the issue.Supervised Visitation: Sometimes, children and families need a safe and neutral setting to maintain contact with a non-custodial parent to support safe exchange between caretakers. Lund's Supervised Visitation and Exchange Program provides this opportunity to families in Chittenden County. Our staff work with children, parents and guardians to facilitate safe visitation and exchange, and communicate with family court as necessary to assist in on-going evaluation of visitation.Regional Partnership Program: Lund partners with the Vermont Department of Children and Families to conduct substance use screenings with parents and caregivers on the front end of the child protection case to ensure early identification and access to treatment when it is indicated. Our staff provides support to parents and caregivers during this process to address barriers that may negatively impact treatment engagement, assist them to make informed decisions around risk to the child and offer recommendations to promote family and child safety.GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2021 – Jun 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$1.8MAdoption Services
