Resources and Care Coordination
The behavioral health system can be challenging to navigate. Resource and referral specialists are experts at identifying and maintaining up-to-date behavioral health resources in the community.
Trainings

Orientation and Enrollment
Once a provider or practice expresses interest in partnering with Maine Pediatric & Behavioral Health Partnership, one or more regional team members will meet with you and your colleagues to explain the program, how to access Maine Pediatric & Behavioral Health Partnership services, answer questions, and discuss expectations. They also want to learn about how your practice operates and currently addresses pediatric behavioral health screening, assessment, and treatment.
