The Maine Health Access Foundation is the state’s largest private nonprofit health care foundation dedicated to promoting access to quality health care and improving health.
Many of our current programs focus on building the capacity of community-led organizations to create health outcomes that are more equitable for every person in Maine. Past and current grantees have helped to improve systems to address critical health needs, coverage, and access to quality care.

MeHAF Wants to Hear From Our Grantees, Past and Present
In April, the Maine Health Access Foundation will be releasing our Annual Report celebrating 25 years as an organization.
We have put together three questions for grantees to share about their work, projects MeHAF has funded (past and present), and how they have seen our mission to improve health access in Maine develop and change. We want this to be an opportunity to spotlight the important and essential work organizations have done over the years and share how that work intersects with MeHAF.
We will be looking for content to be submitted by February 25th to be included in the report.
If you are interested in participating, please email Communications Manager Jeb Murphy for further information and instructions.
