Notes from the Field

Your Stories Belong Here

Our Notes from the Field section is designed to spotlight the lived experiences, insights, and creative solutions emerging from rural communities across Maine. But right now, this page is waiting for its first story, and we’d love for it to come from you!

Do you have a story about a project, partnership, challenge, or success in rural health? Have you witnessed community resilience, innovation, or collaboration worth sharing? This is the place to tell it.

What We’re Looking For

Community stories: Personal reflections, lessons learned, or snapshots of real work happening on the ground.
Project highlights: Behind-the-scenes looks at initiatives making a difference.
Voices from the field: Perspectives from providers, leaders, volunteers, students, and residents.

How You Can Contribute

Share your story, photos, or insights through our submission form. Whether it's a short reflection or a full blog-style piece, your experience can help others learn, connect, and spark new ideas.

Why These Stories Matter

Rural health is shaped by the people who live and work in these communities. Your voice helps paint a fuller picture of what’s possible—celebrating success, surfacing challenges, and illuminating paths forward.
