Programs

MERN has partnered with the Maine Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on a number of projects over the years, including a mammogram education program in the Southern Maine Womens' Reentry Center, a drug disposal awareness campaign at our summer event in 2023, and a collaboration to discuss possible approaches to violence in the wake of the Lewiston shooting that year.

As we continue to grow and develop, we are learning how to make best use of volunteer support. Thanks to a generous planning grant from Volunteer Maine, we are exploring the possibility of creating an Americorps program to enhance our volunteer services.
