Creating a Healthier Maine
Healthy Living for ME® (HL4ME®) is helping communities across Maine create a culture of health, where prevention and wellness are the norm. Our programs give you the tools you need to take control of your own health and manage in a way that works best for you and your life. Healthy Living for ME programs provide education, fitness instruction, self-care strategies, health promotion activities, social care coordination, and more for participants; they do not replace clinical care provided by doctors, nurses, and other medical professionals. Our services help people across the state experience improved wellness and quality of life.
What are “evidence-based” education programs?
Evidence-based education programs are developed and verified by researchers to promote self-management of chronic health conditions, prevent falls, caregiver support, and foster individual well-being, and more.
