211 Maine

Posted on August 28, 2020 by dmartignetti

Nikki Busmanis / 211 Maine Program Manager, speaks to us about the launch of a redesigned website, www.211Maine.org. 211 Maine and the United Ways of Maine are pleased to announce the launch of a redesigned website, 211Maine.org. Finding help for complex needs like shelter, substance use, mental health, or food access can be challenging. Fortunately, 211 Maine is available to all Mainers, and now accessible through a new, user friendly website enabling visitors to initiate a search for help, day or night. 211 Maine is a collaborative effort of the United Ways of Maine, the State of Maine, and The Opportunity Alliance as the Contact Center Partner. The website redesign was possible due to an anonymous fund at the Maine Community Foundation.
