The journey to independent living
Cornerstones of Maine is a clinically-driven transitional living program designed to assist men, women, and gender nonconforming young adults (ages 18 to 28) in their journey to becoming independent. Our program provides a therapeutic, resident-centered approach that gives structure and support based on each resident's individual need.
Through transformative therapeutic work and individual and group support, our residents work towards independent living. Our individualized program includes professional development, academic reengagement, and character building experiences that teach a myriad of skills and create pathways for successful life habits. These experiences, along with enrichment opportunities, promote emotional growth, personal value, and life purpose.
