Family Partnership Resource Center

Welcome to our Family Resource Center under the MAIER Family Partnership. We have gathered resources specific to Maine families and professionals, as well as some important National and Federal agencies and organizations that can provide assistance. In addition, we offer electronic copies of our Maine Parent Guides to Autism Spectrum Disorders, a publication produced by MAIER especially for Maine families.  If you are a family impacted by autism spectrum disorders, and would like a print copy of the Parent Guide, be sure to let us know and we will send one to you at no cost to you.
