Our Statewide Organizing Team.
The ME-RAP Statewide Organizing Team is made up of passionate organizers from across Maine—including people in recovery, people who use drugs, family members, allies, and dedicated service providers—who generously volunteer their time and expertise to support recovery and harm reduction. Above all, they are committed to listening closely to communities, gaining firsthand insight into the most urgent challenges they face.
But the ME-RAP Statewide Organizing Team does more than listen—they lead.
Every year, this team shapes our organizing platform and priorities, ensuring ME-RAP’s policy agenda and programs reflects the real needs and lived wisdom of the people we serve. They also coordinate grassroots efforts statewide, working in close partnership with allied organizations and local leaders to strengthen our collective impact.
We’re really just everyday people just like you who care deeply about this issue and want to make a difference.
Join us! Get involved, raise your voice, and be part of our team!
