The survey is now closed. Thank you to those who participated.
Maine wants to improve services that support older adults to live in our homes and our communities as long as possible. As part of this, Maine wants to hear from people who provide care and support to older adults or adults with disabilities as well as older adults who have primary responsibility for the care of a grandchild or other relative under the age of 18. The statewide survey was conducted between November 15 and December 10, 2019, by The Muskie School of Public Service at the University of Southern Maine (USM) on behalf of Maine's Office of Aging and Disability Services (OADS). USM will combine all responses and produce a report of findings to be used in the creation of Maine's State Plan on Aging (October 1, 2020 - September 30, 2024). More importantly, the findings will help the State and its community partners focus on the areas that are of greatest concern to caregivers in Maine. A final report will be posted on OADS's website in the future.
