The DHHS Community Care Program, part of the Office of Population Health Equity in Portland, ME, is dedicated to empowering every Mainer by bridging the gap to essential health programs and social services. Utilizing a streamlined online referral system, we strive to support those who encounter barriers in accessing vital resources. Our services include culturally and linguistically appropriate assistance, resources for mothers and children, navigation support within the healthcare system, health and wellness education, and options for food, transportation, and heating aid. We are here to help with stress and anxiety support and provide timely assistance with COVID-related resources. By completing a single referral form, individuals can access a wealth of resources tailored to their needs. After submission, our dedicated staff will connect community members with partner organizations within 1-3 days to discuss their specific needs and available options. Please note that eligibility criteria may vary based on the program and region.
