Communities for Children and Youth


Communities for Children and Youth is a statewide initiative of the Maine Children's Cabinet designed to create a partnership between state government and local communities as they work to promote positive child and youth development. The goals of the initiative are to:

  • Measurably improve the well-being of children in every Maine community, and
  • Increase educational attainment and achievement levels of all Maine children.
