We can’t do this work alone. Hunger, homelessness, and poverty are complex issues that need many people and organizations working on them to enable effective solutions. Preble Street partners with several hundred organizations throughout the entire state of Maine to support thousands of vulnerable people in our state. We are proud to work alongside nonprofits; agencies; local, state, and federal government; and businesses ‘to empower people experiencing problems with homelessness, housing, hunger, and poverty, and to advocate for solutions to these problems.’
Partnerships, especially those partnerships that help us advance towards a more equitable Maine, are as key to our future as they have been to our past.
Who are our partners?
This is a snapshot of some of the organizations that we partner with and how they interact with Preble Street programs. Partners help us to advocate for better policies; to reduce food insecurity in Maine; to provide more complete services to people in communities across the state; and to connect more people to housing, healthcare, and other vital resources.
