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.

Winter is upon us and with temperatures plummeting in many areas, keeping the heat on is critical — a fact that criminals try to take advantage of. They impersonate utility companies, threatening to cut off service if an immediate payment isn’t made. The goal of these crooks is to create a sense of urgency so the target acts quickly to pay the alleged past-due balance.
If you get a surprise visit or call from the “utility company” this winter, hang up and don’t engage. Contact your utility company in a way you know to be legitimate (online account, app, or customer service number from a prior bill) to determine if there is a problem with your account. And know that no legitimate company will seek immediate payment for a new-to-you issue.

Greg Payne, Senior Advisor of Housing Policy in the Office of the Governor, and other Maine Calling guests discuss federal, state and local housing supports -- such as new emergency shelters and Maine's voucher program -- in light of the end of federal rent assistance funding.
How to help developers bring down costs and make it easier to build affordable housing? What about those "from away" who are buying up smaller homes and tearing down and rebuilding? Are ADUs going to help?
Listen to the robust discussion on the January 24th Maine Calling here.
