Vermont Parent Representation Center, Inc.

VPRC is a newly formed not-for-profit public interest law and policy organization with a mission “To ensure through advocacy and support that children who can live safely with their parents are afforded a real opportunity to do so.” Our goals are:

  • To reduce the number of children removed from their families into state and other out-of-home custody;
  • Shorten the length of stay in state and other out-of-home custody for children who have been removed, and
  • To reduce the number of children re-entering state and other out-of-home custody after being reunified with their families.

VPRC will achieve these outcomes by working on three fronts:

  1. Advocate at the state and local policy level;
  2. Create of an effective model of legal representation for parents involved in the child welfare system; and
  3. Develop a system of family support services for parents at risk of having their children placed in state custody.
