The Vermont Department for Children and Families (DCF) is a government agency of the U.S. state of Vermont, headquartered in the Waterbury Office Complex in Waterbury. [1] [2]
The department was formed on July 1, 2004. [3]
The divisions of DCF are as follows: [4]
DCF operates the Woodside Juvenile Rehabilitation Center, used for short-term placement and long-term treatment of juvenile delinquents. [5] It is Vermont's sole locked juvenile facility. [6] The detention program can serve up to 16 boys and girls, and the treatment program can serve up to 12 boys. [7] Woodside is located in Colchester. [8]
In 2010, the IRS began investigating a former DCF employee from Newport who was accused of embezzling $490,000 using 250 checks, from August 2004 until October 2009. The technical charge was failure to report income and pay income tax. [9] She was found guilty in 2011, imprisoned and ordered to make restitution. [10]
