  2. Maine family planning offers technical assistance, curriculum resources, and professional development to maine educators to deliver comprehensive sexuality education to youth of all ages. Mfp-produced resources include three evidence-informed, age-appropriate sexual health curricula - puberty happens for older elementary youth (revised in 2024), a middle school scope and sequence curriculum for middle school, and best practices in sti/hiv and pregnancy prevention for high school. All three curriculum resources are available to download for free on the organization's website, for educators page. In addition, digital tip sheets, brochures, and other resources are available on the website. A monthly sexuality education e- newsletter, the beehive, provides educational information and resources as well as announcements of upcoming training opportunities, to a subscriber list of over 980 individuals. In fy25, the prevention education team provided technical assistance and support to educators and other school staff from 27 schools. Prevention education staff presented, tabled, and facilitated sessions at 40 school and community outreach events and conferences, reaching nearly 555 adults…

  3. Since 1971, mfp has championed the reproductive rights of maine citizens. Founded on the belief that every mainer deserves access to comprehensive reproductive health care and to make informed choices, mfp advocates to protect and expand statewide programs that ensure affordable family planning access. Each legislative session, mfp educates new lawmakers on evolving reproductive health access, dispels myths, and reinforces that reproductive care is essential health care - not a political issue. This year, lawmakers successfully supported funding for family planning services, added protections for abortion providers, and expanded access to non-prescription hormonal birth control. Private contributions and agency-endowed resources fund these projects. No public funds are used. Building on the success of a deep listening project with the national family planning and reproductive health association, mfp established a full-time role focused on community outreach and meeting the sexual and reproductive health and family support needs of wabanaki citizens. Actions include creating postpartum care packages for indigenous mothers, expanding access to harm-reduction supplies, and…

The organization over time

Each line starts at 100 in 2017, so what you read is the shape rather than the size: 150 means half as much again as 2017, 50 means half. The number beside each label in the key is where it ended. The shaded band is where the middle 50% of its peers' revenue would sit, given their growth.

Who funds it, year by year

2017 → 2023: the base broadened from 13 funders to 20 funders, grant income rose $642k → $988k.

FAMILY PLANNING ASSOCIATION OF MAINE INC leans on a few funders — its largest provides 50% of grant income and the top three 76%; half comes from just 2 funders.

the vertical line marks half of all grant income — 2 funders to its left

40% of the income these shares are computed over arrives through pass-through sponsors or from payers whose filings do not say what kind of payment it is. Concentration is still measured over all of it, because the money is real; what it does not support is a claim about how many institutions have chosen to fund FAMILY PLANNING ASSOCIATION OF MAINE INC.

Share of funders still giving k years after their first recorded grant, pooled across every acquisition cohort. A funder counts as retained in a year only if it made a grant that year. Measured to FY2023, the last fiscal year that has finished arriving — a funder cannot be counted as lapsed in a year most filers have not reached.

Funder states come from each funder’s own filing. $2.3M arriving through sponsors registered in 9 states is excluded from the map and the split above: a sponsor holds money on a donor’s behalf, so its registered address would place those dollars somewhere no donor need ever have been.
