Mentors

Mentors play unique roles in the lives of Homeworthy clients. Some provide basic social support for clients who may have limited personal relationships in the community. Others provide more specialized support related to a specific skillset or interest. Our hope is that mentors become role models and provide much needed peer support for adult and youth clients. Additional volunteer training required to participate in this program.

Locations: Midcoast Maine

Movers

We are in the business of finding people homes. Part of that process includes moving folks into their new apartments, as well as transporting furniture donated from the community to and from our Rockport campus. If you have a truck or van, we would love to add you to our list of potential movers.

Locations: Midcoast Maine

 
 
 

Administrative Support

No less important is keeping track of all the information that keep the Homeworthy engine running and servicing the hundreds of individuals, families, and youth that seek our services. Opportunities exist in the office and remotely and can include data entry, research projects, sorting and filing, helping with mailings and appeals, and writing thank you notes.
