The members of the Southern Maine Workers’ Center believe that working class and poor people must organize together in order to transform our workplaces and communities.

Health Care is a Human Right Committee
Too many people in our communities either go without the health care they need or are burdened by medical debt. This is why we’re committed to building the collective power of people across the state to win a universal, publicly funded health care system in Maine.
Work With Dignity (WWD)
Many of us don’t know about our legal rights in the workplace, or how to organize to ensure that our legal rights and our human right are met. Our WWD Committee is focused on building the knowledge, skills, and unity of low wage and unorganized workers across a range of industries to organize for justice in our workplaces.

Every year at our Annual Meeting, Southern Maine Workers’ Center members elect our Board of Directors. Click here to meet our elected board members and committee chairs.
