Cornerstones of Maine

Cornerstones of Maine is a clinically-driven transition program designed to assist men, women, and gender nonconforming young adults (ages 18 to 28) in their journey to becoming independent. Cornerstones of Maine is a 9-12 month program provides a therapeutic, resident-centered approach that gives structure and support based on each resident’s individual needs. To accomplish the task of preparing young adults for independence, we utilize an experiential model that places our residents directly into academic classes at local universities, employment at local businesses, mentorships, and volunteer opportunities. Through these real-world experiences residents learn habits and skill sets that will enable them to perform successfully in their future endeavors. Clients uncover and challenge the self-created obstacles that have prevented their success previously.
