Thousands of middle and high school students in Maine will have access to free after-school and summer outdoor learning and career exploration programs. Gov. Mills announced the expansion Thursday morning through a $6.6 million investment of federal funds. She said that will help bring the program to 4,000 students, giving them access to more than 100 after school and summer programs between now and the fall. The expansion triples the total amount of funding invested in the initiative over the last two years.
