Substance Use and Mental Health Counseling Resources
Power of Prevention (POP) is public health organization. Our work is supported by grant funding from various sources, but primarily the Maine Center for Disease Control and Prevention, an office of the Maine Department of Health and Human Services, with oversight by and accountability to other state offices as well. Our focus is on programs and environmental change which supports the health of for the greater good to support communities and groups of individuals in those communities of service.
Reflecting this, POP staff do not typically provide counseling, treatment, or other individually-based services. Power of Prevention members can, however, provide references and direction towards counseling and treatment services.
The Aroostook County Substance Use Directory is designed to help the people of Aroostook County locate the substance use support and services they need. Individuals, organizations, and communities can raise awareness about the value of addiction treatment, recovery, and prevention.
The directory is updated yearly with new links/information. You can download the PDF guide here
