Maine has an obligation and an opportunity right now to engage in a transformation of the child welfare system. Reforms cannot be limited to the state child welfare agency. Our state can prevent future tragedies by building a child well-being and family strengthening system that reduces the strain on the child protective system.
In the second regular session of the 130th Maine Legislature, MCA is committed to elevating the voices and interests of Maine children and families. Our priorities cross issue areas and target carried-over bills, implementation of recently enacted legislation, and administrative action in key areas of child and family well-being. State recovery efforts and investments should help strengthen families with the greatest need and bolster critical services and programs that support them.
