Don't miss the big stories. Like us on Facebook. Vermont Department for Children and Families Commissioner Sean Brown testified before the House Human Services and Education Committees on Friday, January 29, about the proposal from Governor Scottâs administration to move child development activities from one division to other departments and agencies based on the areas of expertise.
