About this award

The Department of Health and Human Services Administration for Children and Families awarded $15.955 million to the Maine Department of Health and Human Services on October 1, 2025, under the Social Services Block Grant (CFDA 93.667) for the period October 1, 2025 through September 30, 2027. The SSBG is a flexible funding source enabling states to tailor social service programming to their population's needs, including services directed toward reducing dependency and promoting self-sufficiency, protecting children and adults from neglect and abuse, and supporting individuals unable to care for themselves.

Maine DHHS distributed the funding to multiple sub-recipients performing child protective services transportation, aging services, early childhood and family support, mental health employment services, and family planning. Child protective services transportation sub-awards flow to Waldo Community Action Partners, Aroostook Regional Transportation System Inc., Ridesource Inc., Kennebec Valley Community Action Program, Western Maine Transportation Services Inc., York County Community Action Corporation, and Regional Transportation Program Inc., enabling children and families in open CPS cases to reach necessary destinations related to their child welfare cases as determined by caseworkers. Aroostook Mental Health Services, Inc. provides transportation for mental health consumers to participate in educational, employment, social, and recreational opportunities under the Bates v. DHHS Consent Decree. Five Area Agencies on Aging—Seniorsplus, Central Maine Area Agency on Aging (Spectrum Generations), Eastern Area Agency on Aging, Aroostook Area Agency on Aging, and Southern Maine Agency on Aging—carry out Older Americans Act provisions for community-based programs and the National Family Caregiver Support Program. Alpha One provides service coordination and administration for Maine State-funded Home Based Supports and Services and the First4ME birth-through-kindergarten program. Family Planning Association of Maine delivers comprehensive family planning, training, and technical assistance services statewide. Mainehealth provides employment support services to adult mental health consumers and individuals with substance use disorders.
