Who this helps
Therapeutic foster care is available for children placed through the child welfare system. Mental health services are available to children and families statewide, often covered by MaineCare.
How they can help.
Spurwink Services is one of Maine's largest behavioral health nonprofits serving children and families. They partner with Maine DHHS to operate the 'A Family for ME' foster parent recruitment program and provide therapeutic foster care placements for children with behavioral and emotional needs. Their family-based treatment programs support children in home settings with wraparound clinical services.
