Parents with Struggling Young Adults

Resources for Parents

Helping Your Young Adult Step Forward Into Life

As a parent, witnessing your child struggle with the transition into adulthood is as heart-wrenching as it is frustrating. Feeling like you don’t have the resources to help your child succeed can leave you feeling helpless and exhausted.

At Cornerstones of Maine, we understand—and we are committed to providing families with a variety of resources and support that they need to walk with their young adult through this pivotal time.

Peer Support: Connecting with Fellow Parents

You are not alone. For many parents, admitting their child to Cornerstones is the first time that they become aware of this. All parents of Cornerstones of Maine participants receive a complimentary membership to Other Parents Like Me (OPLM), a platform dedicated to connecting parents facing similar challenges.

This membership offers unlimited access to:

Daily Support Groups:

Engage in daily virtual meetings facilitated by experienced professionals, providing a safe space to share experiences and gain insights.

Expert-Led Presentations:

Access weekly sessions led by experts in young adult development, mental health, and family dynamics, offering valuable strategies and knowledge.

Resource Library:

Utilize a comprehensive collection of articles, videos, and tools designed to support you and your family through this transition.

Insurance Support: Navigating Financial Considerations

At our Residential Treatment Center, we accept most out-of-network insurance plans, ensuring that families have access to the emergent care they need. We provide this service at no charge to the client. Please visit our VOB page to check your benefits.

For our Transitional and Aftercare Program, parents have the option to seek reimbursement from their insurance provider with Therapy Superbills. To assist with this process, we partner with S&J Health Advocates, though families are responsible for a 10% fee for any claim reimbursement. If interested in finding out more please reach out to: info@sjhealthinsuranceadvocates.com

Our goal is to make the treatment process as seamless as possible while supporting families throughout their journey.
