AHS Strategic Plan Final - 2006

This Plan will guide the organizational activities of the Agency for the coming year. By design, this Plan does not reflect all of the programs, services, and treatment that are at the core of the AHS mission. It also is not meant to supplant other Plans within the Agency, such as Healthy Vermonters and the Blueprint for Health. Rather, its purpose is to provide an overall framework for our efforts to move toward a preferred future regarding the ten themes and special initiatives identified through re-organization, to provide a progress report on our activities in the previous year, and to identify new prioritized actions for the coming year.

Domestic Violence Policy & Practice at AHS: Recommendations for Systems Change

The AHS Domestic Violence Initiative has three long term goals: to implement effective domestic violence policy and practice within AHS; to institutionalize domestic violence expertise within AHS; and to help provide effective client-based social services to alleviate and end domestic violence in Vermont. It is our belief that the achievement of these goals will help ensure the success of the AHS reorganization and simultaneously provide for the safety and security of a significant number of Vermonters who are victimized by domestic violence.

Vermont's Success by Six Initiative

Helping Vermont’s communities to foster the well being of young children and their families is the principal goal of Vermont’s comprehensive early childhood initiative, Success By Six. In its broad vision Success By Six is a systemic view of services and supports that cuts across traditional organizational boundaries. Neither a single program nor a collection of programs, it is a unified strategy to promote better outcomes for all Vermont children and their families.
