The Consumer Council System of Maine (CCSM)
Welcome to the Consumer Council System of Maine website.
Here you will find the latest news and information regarding our work in helping to shape public policy and mental health services in Maine. Browse through the links above to find our calendar of CCSM & other statewide events, local and national mental health resources, FAQ's, and much more.
Do you want to get involved with the CCSM? We value consumer/peer participation and encourage you to check out our calendar for listings of regularly scheduled local council meetings and attend one in your area. The foundation of the CCSM rests in the grassroots participation in the Local Councils as this is where everyone's voice is heard. We also value your comments on questions and surveys we post. Your feedback is welcome and needed.
