We Stand With Maine’s Immigrant Community

We affirm that immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers enrich our community economically, socially, culturally, and politically.

We reject attempts to divide, isolate, or segregate our communities.

We commit to support immigrants, refugees, and asylee communities in our state and the organizations working to ensure their well-being and success in Maine.

And so, we establish the Solidarity Fund to make available rapid response grants to support our immigrant, refugee, and asylum seeking neighbors.
