Support Our Mission
Your gift helps Maine families stay housed and build lasting security.
Housing instability is one of the most significant drivers of poor health, educational disruption, and financial hardship. In Maine, rising housing costs, limited rental availability, and economic volatility place families at constant risk of displacement. Once eviction or foreclosure occurs, recovery becomes exponentially more difficult and costly—for both families and communities.
Early intervention, paired with financial education and resource navigation, is more effective and less traumatic than crisis response alone. Our prevention-focused, whole-family approach includes: eviction and foreclosure prevention support; navigation of housing and health-related resources; and financial education focused on budgeting, credit, and long-term stability.
