A Way VT Can Save $26M for DCF by CEO Larry Cristwww.SMARTvt.org
This document proposes a new initiative called Bending the Curve (BTC) to address problems with Vermont's child protection system. The system is experiencing unsustainable annual caseload increases of 10-20% and ranks highly for permanently removing young children from families.

Pilot programs show BTC could significantly reduce custody rates and associated costs while improving outcomes for families and children. The document outlines the problems with the current system and how BTC aims to improve transparency, accountability, legal representation for families, and coordination of services. The goal is to divert 12-25 children from custody annually in each county, achieving estimated savings
Bending the curve - Saving $20M for State of Vermontwww.SMARTvt.org
The document outlines challenges with Vermont's child protection system and proposes a new approach called Bending the Curve (BTC) to address these challenges. The current system takes too many young children into state custody too soon, does too little for families, and spends too much money. BTC would establish multi-disciplinary teams in each county to thoroughly assess cases before custody and provide coordinated services to safely keep families together whenever possible. Pilot projects found BTC could reduce custody rates for young children by 30% while improving outcomes and saving millions annually. The goal is to divert 12-25 children from custody per county through early intervention and family support.
