Our Mission
United Recovery Fund was founded
to provide the critical support needed for people recovering from substance use disorder and formerly incarcerated individuals to transform their lives.
Headquartered in Portland, Maine with geographic presence in
New Hampshire, and Massachusetts,
United Recovery Fund empowers hundreds of individuals to achieve and maintain meaningful employment, while also cultivating a healing community that helps prevent relapse and recidivism.
Our Model
United Recovery Fund partners with MaineWorks, an award winning B-Corp social staffing company to support our clients in their re-entry into the workforce following treatment for substance use disorder and/or incarceration.
MaineWorks provides the jobs.
United Recovery Fund provides the support each client needs
to show up to work confidently and comfortably each day.
