Sweetser`s OPTIONS team has been out and about in the community!
First up, @knowyouroptionsme program partnered with Bath Police Department L.E.A.D. (Law Enforcement Against Drugs) and recently attended the LEAD to Safety Day. Building these partnerships supports community members to ensure their safety during times of recovery. Pictured here are Sweetser OPTIONS Liaison Tom Hibbert and Chief of Bath Police Department Andrew Booth.
Then later in the month, the OPTIONS team attended the Office of Behavioral Health Night @portland_seadogs game to connect with the community, share resources, and spread hope. We’d like to give a shoutout to the OPTIONS team members in attendance: Tom Hibbert, Johnny Loftus, Ben Woodburn, Joanna Montgomery, and Allie Valiente.

What a fantastic day of community, cars, and connection! 🚗
A huge thank you to @sanfordsound and longtime Sweetser supporter Jack Bogard for hosting their second annual Open House & Cruise-In to benefit Sweetser. The event brought together car enthusiasts, families, and friends for a fun day of great vehicles, music, food, and community – all while raising awareness for mental health.
Most importantly, every donation made during the show went directly to Sweetser, helping support mental health services for individuals and families in the Sanford community. We are incredibly grateful to Jack and everyone who attended, donated, and helped make the day such a success!

We are so proud of our creative students at our special purpose school in Saco! Pictured here are the three winning student artwork pieces used to label the maple syrup bottles the students have worked hard to make. One winner was selected from the high school, middle school, and elementary school.
