we are
We are a volunteer-based organization representing 14 different sectors and community organizations, including nearly 40 members. Our focus areas are fostering connectedness and supporting well-being so all of our initiatives fit within one of those two areas. We are community members, Orono students, Orono Schools staff, local law enforcement, parents of Orono students, local business owners, and community stakeholders who value being future-focused and hope-filled!
