Healthy Living 4 ME

We speak with Kristin Overton the Chief Strategy Officer for Healthy Living 4 ME about  $1.2 Million Grant Awarded to Healthy Living for ME. The recently awarded three-year, $1.2 million grant from the Administration for Community Living will allow Healthy Living for ME to strengthen its overall work, expand its Chronic Disease Self-Management Education (CDSME) services in Maine and bring existing and new programming to a wider statewide population.

Kristin joined Spectrum Generations in 2006 under Bridges Home Services overseeing their in-home care, technology systems, community case management, reverse mortgage counseling, veteran-directed home and community based care, and Adult Day and Community Support programs. Prior to joining Spectrum Generations, she spent time in the banking, residential apartment rental, and temporary staffing industries.
