Housing Justice Maine
We   believe housing is a human right and we seek to empower those  residents most deeply impacted by an oppressive housing system.  

Legislative Priorities for the 131st Legislative Session


Housing Justice Maine believes that everyone deserves a safe, affordable, accessible home, and together we can guarantee housing to all who reside here.

The affordable housing crisis in Maine is not new. What we face in Maine today is part of a long story in the U.S. of colonization, displacement and genocide. In order to realize true housing justice, we must create housing and land policies that right past wrongs and build equity for our future.

​No person, regardless of race, gender, class, sexual orientation, age, ability, medical condition, disability, citizenship or previous criminal or housing record should be denied a home.

Housing Justice Maine is a coalition that includes the Maine Immigrant Housing Coalition,  Homeless Voices for Justice,
​Maine People’s Alliance,  Raise-Op Housing Cooperative, Dignity First, and Maine Equal Justice.
