Port Resources

Our Success

We're a vital asset to Maine's community.

Work For Us

Help us change the lives of those in need.

Train With Us

We offer a wide variety of hands-on courses.

As we all face the COVID-19 public health crisis together as a community, Port Resources remains committed to our clients’ and staffs’ safety by following the CDC’s guidelines for preventing the spread of this virus.

We are following strict protocols around hand washing, disinfecting surfaces and sheltering in place, we are also closed to all non-essential visitors and will remain so until it is deemed safe for all of us to come together as a community once again.

In the meanwhile, we will continue to provide as many of our services as we can with the least disruption as possible. For those services we have had to temporarily suspend, we look forward to starting them again very soon.

We are still available by phone call or email, so do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions or concerns. We hope that you all remain safe and we truly appreciate your patience as we manage these challenging circumstances.
