A Family for ME is a non-profit organization partnership between Spurwink Services and the Maine Department of Health and Human Services. Their primary goal is to increase the number of available foster and adoptive families for the children in Maine. A Family for ME believes that every child deserves a safe and loving family environment to thrive. They are hosting a Virtual Open House on Tuesday, September 13 from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. on Zoom. Foster and adoptive parents will be joining professionals to answer your questions about the different ways to provide care for teenagers, including respite and emergency care. If you’ve ever considered foster care or adoption, this is a great opportunity to learn more and meet members of the community.
You can register through September 12 at tickettailor.com/events/afamilyforme/729190#. For more information, contact A Family for ME/Stephanie Eklund at seklund@spurwink.org.
