The American Family

Hyosook Jung

This document summarizes changes in American family structures from the 1950s to today. It discusses the emphasis on individual freedom and equality in modern families. Traditional nuclear families made up most households in the 1950s, but now many families are single-parent, blended, multi-generational for support, or same-sex couples. Marriage and children are no longer the only path, and divorce is common. The role of children is to pursue individual happiness rather than family responsibilities.

The document summarizes programs funded by the Fund for a Healthy Maine prior to the 2012-2013 biennium. It lists various departments within the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) that received funding, including the Centers for Disease Control, Office of Child and Family Services, Office of Substance Abuse, and Office of MaineCare Services. It also lists other state departments and programs that received funding, such as the Department of Education's School Breakfast Program, the Attorney General's office, the Department of Public Safety, and the Department of Administrative and Financial Affairs. Quality child care and bone marrow screenings programs previously received funding but saw it eliminated in 2012-2013.

FHM Funded Positions, July 2011

Maine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM

The Fund for a Healthy Maine previously funded several State positions in various departments including the Department of Health and Human Services, Department of Education, Department of Public Safety, Judiciary, and Attorney General's Office. However, in fiscal years 2012 and 2013, the General Fund began funding these positions instead of the Fund for a Healthy Maine. The positions included public health educators, social services specialists, education specialists, fire marshals, and assistant attorneys general among others. Departments had to absorb the costs of some positions without additional funding.

Fund for a Healthy Maine PPT, July 2011

Maine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM

The Fund for a Healthy Maine (FHM) allocates funds from Maine's annual tobacco settlement payments to support health programs aimed at disease prevention. It accounts for only 0.7% of Maine's total healthcare spending but funds critical programs in areas like smoking prevention and cessation, childcare, oral health, substance abuse treatment, and school-based health centers. Greater investment in prevention through the FHM has the potential to dramatically reduce chronic disease and healthcare costs over the long term.

Maine Noncigarette Tobacco Excise Tax Revenue 1998-2011

Maine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM

Maine collected increasing amounts of excise tax revenue from non-cigarette tobacco products like smokeless tobacco from 1998 to 2011, rising from $2.89 million in 1998 to $11.57 million in 2011. In 2005, Maine changed its smokeless tobacco excise tax from a flat rate per unit to a weight-based system of $2.02 per ounce, with a minimum of $2.02 per canister, which contributed to higher and steadier revenue collection in subsequent years.

FHM Funding Impacts and Outcomes of Programs, July 2011

Maine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM

The document summarizes funding and outcomes for various public health programs funded by Maine's Fund for a Healthy Maine. It describes how funds support Head Start and child care programs, home visitation services, dental education and care initiatives, substance abuse treatment, family planning clinics, tobacco prevention and control efforts, school-based health programs, and efforts to build a public health infrastructure and provide immunizations. Proposed funding cuts would eliminate services for thousands of families and children and negatively impact key public health programs.

The high cost of health care and health insurance places a large burden on Maine businesses. The average cost of a family health insurance policy was $8,700 in 2008 but is projected to exceed $15,000 by 2012, a trajectory that is unsustainable for many businesses. Maine's economic recovery depends on reducing health care costs, which the Fund for a Healthy Maine aims to do. Every dollar invested in prevention saves $7.50 in health costs within five years. Without the Fund, Maine's public health investment would fall significantly compared to other states. Dismantling the Fund would send the wrong message and take Maine in an unwise direction for businesses.

The Fund for a Healthy Maine Supports the Maine Economy, 03 2011

Maine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM

The document discusses Maine's Fund for a Healthy Maine (FHM), which was created using money from the tobacco settlement to invest in preventing disease and promoting health. It argues that the FHM helps lower healthcare costs for businesses and families by keeping people healthy. However, the Governor's budget proposes dismantling the FHM and using the funds to fill budget gaps instead of for prevention as originally intended. Supporters believe the FHM should be protected to continue creating opportunities for better health and lower costs through prevention.

FHM Allocations and MSA Payments, Updated July 2011

Maine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM

The document shows revenue and program allocations for Maine's Fund for a Healthy Maine from fiscal years 2001 to 2013. It displays the beginning balance for the fund, the program cuts of $9 million in the first year, and flat funding for four years after money was diverted from the fund to the general fund. Revenue came from annual Master Settlement Agreement payments while allocations funded public health programs.

FHM History and Vision, Updated July 2011

Maine Public Health Association Tobacco Policy Subcommittee and Friends of the FHM

The Fund for a Healthy Maine (FHM) was created by the Maine Legislature in 1999 to distribute tobacco settlement funds to support eight categories of health programs. The FHM receives annual payments from the tobacco settlement and allocates funds to supplement existing health programs, not replace taxpayer funding. However, in the past the Maine Legislature has diverted over $126 million from the FHM to the state's general fund. Supporters of the FHM want to ensure funds continue to be used for their intended health-related purposes and view the FHM as a unique opportunity to invest in disease prevention and health promotion programs that save costs.

We’re talking about Vedic Meditation, a form of meditation that has been around for at least 5,000 years. Back then, the people who lived in the Indus Valley, now known as India and Pakistan, practised meditation as a fundamental part of daily life. This knowledge that has given us yoga and Ayurveda, was known as Veda, hence the name Vedic. And though there are some written records, the practice has been passed down verbally from generation to generation.
