• About Us
  Service Fellows devote between one and two years to helping a community address a challenge. They are recent college graduates who opt to apply their skills and knowledge to a service assignment. During service, they receive a stipend, health insurance, training, and other supports that help them focus on the community work plan.
• Our Impact
  Maine Service Fellows is a program of Volunteer Maine, the state service commission, and not part of the AmeriCorps national service network. The Commission works with qualifying communities to recruit and place individual Service Fellows.
