Programs › Maine Mentoring Partnership

The Maine Mentoring Partnership (MMP) was established in 2001 by the Maine Children’s Cabinet and came under the JMG umbrella in 2006. MMP is a statewide public-private partnership of mentoring program providers and supporters. MMP’s primary role is to increase the number of formal mentoring relationships available to Maine’s children and youth. MMP is a state partner member of MENTOR, the national mentoring partnership.

MMP is a formal partner of Communities for Children and Youth (C4CY), an initiative developed by the Commissioners of the Departments of Health and Human Services, Education, Labor, Juvenile Corrections and Public Safety—the key child and family serving departments in the State of Maine. C4CY includes 65 partner communities throughout the state, working on a wide variety of prevention strategies to overcome the problems of anti-social behavior, including juvenile crime, academic failure and low aspirations.
