Support public service journalism for Maine

The Maine Monitor provides people across Maine with free access to the in-depth, nonpartisan news they deserve. Our reporting fills vital information needs left as Maine’s legacy news organizations cut newsroom positions — particularly investigative reporting. 

Our reporters investigate and research stories that are not being reported elsewhere and their reporting informs community discussions, individual decisions, and legislative deliberations.

Our membership benefits
