This table describes the fees and expenses that you may pay if you buy and hold shares of the Walden Small Cap Fund.

Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] 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. For the fiscal year ended December 31, 2018, the Fund’s portfolio turnover rate was 22.47% of the average value of its portfolio.

Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock

The Example is intended to help you compare the cost of investing in the Fund with the cost of investing in other mutual funds. The Example assumes a $10,000 investment, a 5% annual return, redemption at the end of each period and that the Fund’s operating expenses remain the same. The Example reflects the fee waiver and expense reimbursement for the duration of the waiver/reimbursement period only.

The Fund invests, under normal circumstances, at least 80% of its assets in a diversified portfolio of domestic equity securities of small cap companies. Equity securities include common stock and any rights to purchase common stock. “Assets” means net assets, plus the amount of borrowing for investment purposes. Shareholders will be given 60 days’ advance notice of any change to this policy. For these purposes, the Adviser defines small cap issuers as those with market capitalizations within the range encompassed by the Russell 2000® Index at the time of purchase. The size of companies in the Russell 2000® Index may change with market conditions. In addition, changes to the composition of the Russell 2000® Index can change the market capitalization range of the companies included in the index. As of December 31, 2018, the market capitalization range of the Russell 2000® Index was between $13 million and $21.3 billion.


The Adviser evaluates financially material environmental, social, and governance (ESG) factors as part of the investment decision-making process for the Fund. The Adviser considers financial materiality as it is understood in generally accepted accounting principles—information that would impact the judgment of an informed investor. The Adviser’s ESG analysis considers the range of impacts that ESG factors may have on future revenues, expenses, assets, liabilities and overall risk. The Fund is subject to screening criteria in which the Adviser excludes companies with significant exposure in specific products or services, considering their revenue dependence (share of total revenue derived from undesirable products/services), market share (if a company is a market leader in an undesirable product despite relatively small share of total company revenue), and severity (how proximate is the product or service to the undesirable product—e.g., minor electronic input to a weapon system). Examples of products and services are found on page 29 of the Prospectus in the second paragraph under the heading “Environmental, Social & Governance Guidelines.” In addition, the Adviser utilizes active ownership to encourage more sustainable business policies and practices and greater ESG transparency. The Adviser encourages portfolio companies to improve their ESG performance and transparency through shareholder engagement. Engagement strategies include proxy voting, dialogue with company management and sponsorship of shareholder resolutions, and public policy advocacy.

Risk [Heading] rr_RiskHeading Principal Investment Risks
Risk Narrative [Text Block] 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 value of your investment in the Fund will also vary. You could lose money on your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could underperform other investments. Investments in the Fund are not deposits of 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 Cap Company Risk: These companies 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.


Management Risk: The Adviser’s judgments about the attractiveness, value and potential appreciation of a particular asset class or individual security in which the Fund invests may prove to be incorrect and there is no guarantee that the Adviser’s judgment will produce the desired results.


ESG Criteria Risk: Because the Fund’s criteria exclude securities of certain issuers for nonfinancial reasons, the Fund may forgo some market opportunities available to funds that do not use these criteria.

Risk Lose Money [Text] rr_RiskLoseMoney You could lose money on your investment in the Fund, or the Fund could underperform other investments.
Risk Not Insured Depository Institution [Text] rr_RiskNotInsuredDepositoryInstitution Investments in the Fund are not deposits of 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.

[1] Boston Trust Investment Management, Inc. (the "Adviser") has entered into an expense limitation agreement with the Fund to reduce fees payable to the Adviser and/or reimburse the Fund to limit the Total Fund Operating Expenses of the Fund to 1.00% of its average daily net assets through May 1, 2020 (exclusive of brokerage costs, interest, taxes, dividends, litigation expenses, indemnification, expenses associated with the investments in underlying investment companies and extraordinary expenses (as determined under generally accepted accounting principles)). The Adviser may seek recoupment of fees waived and expenses reimbursed within three years after the expenses occurred if the Fund is able to make the repayment without exceeding the current limitation on Total Fund Operating Expenses, or the limitation in place at the time of initial waiver/reimbursement. The expense limitation agreement may be terminated by the Board of Trustees at any time and will terminate automatically upon termination of the Investment Management Agreement.
