Maine SILC Workgroups are themed according to our work in the Maine State Plan for Independent Living (Maine SPIL). Each workgroup meets regularly to advance the goal areas in the SPIL. Workgroups are led and made up of Maine SILC members but anyone with an interest in the content area is welcome to join the workgroup. Contact Maine SILC for more information.
