Scholarship Description
Over 300,000 Mainers have been affected by service, whether as a veteran, retiree, family member, Guard or Reserve, or active duty personnel. Many of our veterans have returned home to become community leaders and advocates for other veterans through the Maine Military and Community Network and other Veteran Councils. As a partner in these initiatives, the Bureau will continue to lead Maine's veteran advocate community in creating a streamlined, fully-integrated continuity of programs to bolster veterans' Employment opportunities, improve veterans' access to Education opportunities, reduce homelessness, enhance mental health programs and honor our veterans' remarkable legacy of service.ADVERTISEMENT
