Eugenics Survey of Vermont
The Eugenics Survey of Vermont was a survey that gathered biological, familial, and social information of Vermonters in order to further eugenic policies in the state. The survey existed from 1925-1936 and resulted in the sterilization of at least 250 Vermonters, most of them women. Because of incomplete records, it is likely that the actual number of forced sterilizations was higher than this.
