We’re spreading hope in Brunswick—one wall at a time.
The halls of our Brunswick Hope & Healing Center have been transformed thanks to the talent and vision of our own Art Educator, Nick Blunier, who designed and painted a series of inspiring murals throughout our Certified …Community Behavioral Health Clinic (CCBHC).
From the moment clients walk through the doors, they are welcomed by a powerful reminder that ‘Recovery Is Possible’. As they make their way to appointments, they are surrounded by a vibrant Maine-inspired mural anchored by one simple but meaningful word: HOPE.
These murals do more than brighten the space; they reflect the heart of the work happening inside our clinic every day. They serve as a visual reminder that healing is possible, recovery is real, and no one has to face life’s challenges alone.
At Sweetser, hope isn’t just something we talk about; it’s something we strive to make visible. Thanks to Nick’s incredible work, that message now greets and inspires everyone who enters our Brunswick Hope & Healing Center at 329 Bath Rd.

As a part of our summer program, students explored the anatomy of a whale! Students stepped inside the life-sized exhibit to explore the anatomy of a whale up close and learn about its organs. The interactive experience brought science lessons to life, sparking curiosity and excitement as students …discovered what makes these incredible marine mammals unique. Hands-on learning opportunities like this help make education engaging, memorable, and fun for our students all summer long.

This year's commencement ceremony at our Special Purpose School in Saco honored one remarkable student who earned a well-deserved celebration surrounded by the people who supported him every step of the way. At Sweetser, we know that no two students follow the same path. Each young person …comes to us with unique strengths, challenges, goals, and dreams. That's why our educational approach is built around individualized support, helping students learn in ways that work best for them and empowering them to reach milestones that once may have felt out of reach. This celebration reflected the same individualized care that defines the Sweetser experience. Family members and staff gathered to recognize not only a diploma earned, but also the perseverance, resilience, and growth behind it.
