“Maine Champion opened my eyes to the possibilities and gave my daughter the life she’s been dreaming of. I never knew there were so many resources available to provide people with disabilities the ability to live and work independently of their caregivers. Now she’s hosting Thanksgiving in her new apartment. Thank you sooo much!!”

“Janet and Alycia were very helpful as I navigated the process of looking for a living situation for my son. They brought insight and knowledge as to what possible types of homes were out there and encouraged me to keep looking until I found the right one. Also providing ideas of other places to call and go for tours.
There are so many questions and concerns as you prepare for your loved one to transition to a new environment. Janet and Alycia were able to discuss and help me work through them. They shared ideas and information that helped me know how to work with HCDDS, the Provider, and the OISP (Ohio Individual Service Plan).
I know I will always be able to call them if any questions arise in the future and I thank them for all the support they gave me!”

“I was a little skeptical but also a little desperate. I mean, I can Google government programs, non-profits and job opportunities for Autistics myself. In fact, over the years, I had. But with Simon’s graduation rapidly approaching and still having no ideas on next steps, I called. I was immediately impressed with their knowledge but also with their care. You can tell that they put their whole heart into their business. But guess who is going to college!!! He couldn’t be more excited and it’s all thanks to you. “

“The Maine Champion organization is an excellent organization that has provided our family help, guidance, and direction as we navigate the changing needs of our daughter who has special needs. Janet and Alycia’s
combined experience and knowledge from years of working in the school system as well as their own personal experience has been invaluable.
Both are a wealth of knowledge and their empathetic style makes them very easy to talk to and receive information in a digestible way. From topics like DDS, SSI, Stable Accounts, Special Needs Trusts, etc., they have first
hand experience working in these areas and many more. They are a trusted, well informed organization that we highly recommend!”
