Meeting Support Program

The Meeting Support Program by the Maine Health Access Foundation (MeHAF) provides funding for meetings that align with MeHAF's mission and objectives, focusing on addressing health and healthcare barriers for Maine’s most vulnerable populations. The program awards grants up to $1,000 for community or regional meetings and up to $2,000 for statewide meetings. Eligible costs include meeting facilitator/presenters, guest speakers and related travel expenses, and stipends and travel costs for community members to attend. The program is designed to support meetings that have a broad base of community support or involve community collaboration but does not cover operational costs, individual staff member trainings, or events primarily serving as fundraisers. Applications must be submitted at least six weeks before the scheduled meeting date, and an organization is eligible for only one Meeting Support Grant per calendar year.
