About this award
The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families awarded the Maine Department of Health and Human Services $58,639,403 on October 1, 2025, under the Foster Care Title IV-E program (CFDA 93.658). The award funds safe and stable out-of-home care services for children under state child welfare jurisdiction through September 30, 2026, with performance in Maine.
Title IV-E is a formula grant program that provides quarterly awards based on estimated expenditures later revised to reflect actual allowable claimed costs. Foster Care Title IV-E plans remain effective without plan renewal but may be amended as necessary; the Administration for Children and Families approves or disapproves plans within 45 days of receipt.
Maine DHHS passed funding through to Adoptive & Foster Families Of Maine, Inc., a nonprofit based in Bangor, Maine, on January 13, 2026. That sub-award supports Resource Family support services that assist adoptive, foster, and kinship caregivers in their role caring for youth placed in their homes by the Department.
