Current Priorities: Continuing our 30×30 campaign to conserve 30% of Maine’s land and water by 2030 and to create more equitable access to the outdoors by reducing barriers such as fees and transportation access to public places.
Natural Resources Council of Maine
Recent achievement: In a victory more than a decade in the making, NRCM led efforts resulting in lawmakers closing a loophole in the law that allowed other states to dump hundreds of thousands of tons of construction and demolition debris (CDD) in Maine’s Juniper Ridge Landfill; this created a massive environmental injustice for residents and tribal citizens in the area.
Maine Resource Recovery Association
Current priorities: We are looking forward to expanding the services we offer our members.
Maine People’s Resource Center
Recent achievements: MPRC-trained volunteers have been part of successful legislative campaigns in the past year around drug policy reform and affordable housing.
How does MaineShare benefit you?: We are committed to the idea that social justice organizations should be funded to the greatest extent possible by everyday people for whom policy reforms matter most.
