We create opportunities that support self-sufficiency, self-respect and pride for residents.
Stable housing is healthcare. It promotes positive outcomes in education, employment, physical and mental health, and financial stability.
With a place to call home, self-respect, and a support system, playing an active role in the community can be made possible.
The housing we provide represents a long-term community asset. We strive to be the best housing agency in town.

RENT RELIEF:
Maine has $200 million in rent relief funds to provide rental and utility relief payments for eligible renters to maintain housing stability. Maine’s Community Action Agencies will review applications, check eligibility, and process payments for eligible expenses on behalf of households. For more information, go to https://www.mainehousing.org/programs-services/rental/rentaldetail/covid-19-rental-relief-program
Bath Housing and AARP have been working together to connect residents to relief funds. Thanks to the Times Record for profiling this partnership and the outstanding work of our Resident Services team.
This article contains interesting data on Maine's population growth. Not surprisingly, the peak COVID years resulted in intense change, mostly in the greater Portland metropolitan area, which some might argue includes Bath.
This surge in intra-state migrants (mostly from states in New England, and NY, PA, and NC) is no doubt putting pressure on the housing stock. As the article concludes, "Growth is good . . . but growth presents challenges, and we must intelligently respond to them, with informed understanding, clear-sighted rationality, and not least, heart."
