About the company

Lund is a Vermont nonprofit that supports children and families by offering an integrated mix of services. It runs a 5-star rated early childhood program, provides adoption services to place children in permanent homes, and operates residential and community-based substance abuse treatment programs for parents, including treatment while living with their children. The organization delivers parenting support, education, and childcare through a single umbrella to address poverty, addiction, and abuse. Its approach centers on wraparound services designed to help families heal, grow, and prosper together. Lund differentiates itself by being one of the few places in Vermont that allows parents to receive residential treatment while parenting their children and by combining education, childcare, and family support under one roof.

Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Liz Gamache became CEO in May 2025, ending the interim leadership period.
  • Lund expanded Kids-A-Part to incarcerated fathers, broadening a proven family-reunification program.
  • Vermont Mutual donated $11,700 in January 2026, signaling continuing community support.

What critics are saying

  • Lund requested $276,207.22 for FY26 Kids-A-Part expansion and $478,280 for DULCE salaries.
  • Programs depend on Vermont AHS and DOC contracts, exposing 2026 services to budget cuts.
  • If state funding tightens, Lund loses integrated treatment, childcare, and adoption scale simultaneously.

What makes Lund unique

  • Lund is Vermont's oldest and largest nonprofit adoption agency, with 12,000 adoptions finalized.
  • It operates Vermont's only residential addiction treatment program where parents live with children.
  • Its early childhood education program holds a five-star rating for children six weeks to five years.
