Portfolio Turnover rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock
The Fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells
securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover may
indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when Fund
shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected
in annual fund operating expenses or in the Example, affect the Fund's
performance.
Expense Example, Heading rr_ExpenseExampleHeading Example:
Expense Example, Narrative rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock
The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the

Investment Strategy, Heading rr_StrategyHeading Principal Investment Strategies
Investment Strategy, Narrative rr_StrategyNarrativeTextBlock
The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its assets in a
diversified portfolio of equity securities, such as common and preferred stocks
of domestic and foreign small and mid cap companies with innovative products and
processes. The Fund seeks to invest in innovative companies whose products or
services are benefitted by secular market trends that offer long-term investment
potential. These secular market trends are based on factors that may include
demographics, consumer lifestyle, an increasing technical work force,
technological advancements or legal and regulatory issues. "Assets" means net
assets, plus the amount of borrowing for investment purposes. For these
purposes, the Adviser defines small to mid cap issuers as those with market
capitalizations within the range encompassed by the Russell 2500 Index at the
time of purchase. The size of companies in the Russell 2500 Index may change
with market conditions. In addition, changes to the composition of the Russell
2500 Index can change the market capitalization range of the companies included
in the index. As of June 30, 2011, the market capitalization range of the
Russell 2500 Index was between $76 million and $7.5 billion. However, the Fund
generally excludes securities with market capitalizations less than $400 million
at time of purchase. The Fund may invest in companies in emerging markets. The
Walden SMID Cap Innovations Fund incorporates comprehensive written
environmental, social and governance (ESG) guidelines in the selection of
individual securities and in portfolio construction. The Fund also seeks to
strengthen ESG performance and accountability of portfolio companies through
proxy voting, shareholder engagement and public policy advocacy. In selecting
stocks,Walden Asset Management ("Walden"), an affiliate of the Adviser, favors
investment in companies and institutions it deems to have relatively strong ESG
records and seeks to avoid those with inferior ESG performance relative to
peers. After investing in a company, Walden may also choose to pursue
shareholder advocacy to encourage stronger corporate responsibility and
accountability.

Walden researches, evaluates and seeks to promote corporate responsibility in
five broad areas of concern: products and services, workplace conditions,
community impact, environmental impact and corporate governance. Hence, in each
of the five broad areas identified above, and notwithstanding other investment
considerations, Walden favors companies judged to demonstrate best practices
relative to peers, improvement over time, robust management systems and
accountability through standardized public reporting and responsiveness to
shareholders.
Risk, Heading rr_RiskHeading Principal Investment Risks
Risk, Narrative rr_RiskNarrativeTextBlock
All investments carry a certain amount of risk and the Fund cannot guarantee
that it will achieve its investment objective. The value of the Fund's
investments will fluctuate with market conditions and interest rates and the

your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could underperform other investments.
Investments in the Fund are not deposits of Boston Trust Investment Management,
Inc. (the "Adviser") or Boston Trust & Investment Management Company and are
not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any
other government agency. Below are the main risks of investing in the Fund.

Market Risk: Market risk refers to the risk related to investments in securities
in general and the daily fluctuations in the securities markets.

Equity Risk: The value of the equity securities held by the Fund, and thus the
value of the Fund's shares, can fluctuate -- at times dramatically.

Small to Mid Cap Company Risk: These companies, which may be newer and have
limited product lines, may be subject to greater market risks and fluctuations
in value than large capitalization companies and may not correspond to changes
in the stock market in general.

Foreign Investment Risk: Foreign investing involves risks not typically
associated with U.S. investments, including adverse political, social and
economic developments and differing auditing and legal standards. These risks
are magnified in "emerging markets."
