Adoptive and Foster Families of Maine, Inc. & The Kinship Program operates in the field of individual and family services, supporting adoptive, foster, and kinship families as they navigate complex child welfare matters. Based in Orono, Maine, the organization provides resources and guidance to help families care for children in need, including non-judgmental listening, systems navigation, support groups, and mentoring. Its services extend from practical assistance such as clothing, school supplies, and holiday programs to educational resources, training opportunities, and access to local facilities, with a focus on helping children achieve security and stability. The group serves families dealing with the regulatory and emotional challenges associated with foster care and adoption, aiming to aid them in navigating state and federal requirements and connecting with community supports. A recent programmatic development includes activities like an annual training conference and various family-centered events designed to support long-term involvement in the kinship and foster care networks.
