There is still availability for an exciting opportunity for Maine parents of children with intellectual disabilities & developmental disabilities (ID/DD) and Autism (ASD) diagnoses. The Maine Office of Child & Family Services (OCFS) has partnered with Attend Behavior to provide one year of the Attend Behavior app to families, free of charge!

Please visit the landing page here to learn more about it: https://www.attendbehavior.com/maine.
