Maine Unveils Plan for 92 Affordable Apartments to Combat Homelessness

State officials in Maine have announced a new initiative to build 92 affordable apartments in Portland, South Portland, and Bangor. This project, part of MaineHousings Home for Good program, aims to provide stable housing and on-site support for residents dealing with job, substance use, and mental health issues. Tenants will pay no more than 30% of their income on rent, with the Maine Department of Health and Human Services covering supportive services. The $30 million effort, funded by state, MaineHousing loans, and federal low-income housing tax credits, is expected to help rebuild lives and combat the growing homelessness crisis.
