ARM-ME
Advocates for Recovery through Medicine (ARM-ME) is a national organization of volunteer advocates who fight for the fair treatment of patients who utilize Medication Assisted Treatment (MAT) in their recovery from opiate addiction. The most common forms of MAT are the medications methadone and buprenorphine (Subutex and Suboxone). Being a person with opiate addiction isn’t easy, and being a MAT patient is even harder! The myths and prejudice that surround this form of treatment affect patients at their jobs, probation and law enforcement officers, judges, health-care providers, landlords and even with their own family and friends
Our advocates are here to help!

This closure effects all methadone patients in Maine!
It makes us feel vulnerable, clogs clinic lines, increases costs for everyone and adds to the already insurmountable stigma we face each day!
