The Maine Association for New Americans

MANA is an immigrant-led organization that promotes social and personal empowerment of immigrants.

Community Wellness and Peer Support Program

MANA’s Peer Support Program is a multilingual, multicultural emotional and wellness program that offers one-on-one and group support and public education sessions to destigmatize mental health and address individual and collective trauma.

Community Wellness and Transportation Program

MANA is currently providing transportation related to our Community Wellness trips, as part of our Peer Support and for medical patients with cancer and other critical medical needs. These medical rides are limited and provided on a first come first served basis.

Welcoming The Stranger Program (WTS)

MANA’s Welcoming the Stranger Program (WTS) matches volunteers with immigrant individuals and families, to provide a warm welcome and build cross-culture connections to the Greater Portland community.
