Health is foundational to an individual's success both in custody and in the community. But health is more than simply the provision of medical care – mental health, sleep, nutrition, and physical activity also play critical roles in an individual's rehabilitation and reentry.
Through the Health & Wellness initiative, we will achieve a holistic health and wellness system that improves outcomes for incarcerated and supervised individuals.
Success looks like: 
The Department prioritizes health and wellness as a fundamental obligation.
The Department engages Vermont's community members to support health and wellness outcomes for the population we serve.
Health and wellness systems and processes operate efficiently and effectively.
The Department supports and fosters holistic wellness for those in its care and custody.
