Our Purpose

Our purpose is to serve the immigrant, refugee and asylum seeker communities throughout Maine achieve a sense of belonging in their new home state, to make concerted efforts to overcome daily challenges of life to obtain sustainable employment, access educational resources, appropriate health care, and quality affordable housing. We seek to overcome the effects of trauma by helping newcomers integrate into society and the labor force.
