Description: Maine mental health provider Sweetser has announced it is ending its clinic-based therapy program, which will affect 450 children and adults. The nonprofit says it made the decision because reimbursement rates from both the state and from private insurers are not sufficient to support the service. And while Sweetser says it will work to find alternative services for the hundreds affected, mental health advocates say that will come as a challenge.
