Higher Education and Service Opportunities

Dear Student,
You are invited to participate in a feasibility study being conducted by Volunteer Maine in accordance with LD1433 passed into law by the 132nd Legislature on June 25, 2025. The study seeks to understand the current landscape of service and volunteer engagement among students enrolled in higher education to assess the feasibility of implementing a Higher Education Service Corps in Maine.

If you decide to participate, you will be asked to fill out the following online questionnaire, which will take approximately 10 minutes. There are no risks to completing this questionnaire other than your time and any inconvenience. This study will identify ways in which the State can support communities through service while simultaneously provide growth opportunities to students.

Your survey responses are anonymous. Please do not write your name anywhere on the questionnaire. The data will be stored on a secure electronic database. Only aggregate data will be published or shared with stakeholders. Participation is voluntary. You may stop the survey at any time or skip questions.

Thank you in advance for providing your insight into this important topic as we learn how best to support our students' ambitions and values.

If you have any questions please contact Lucy Martin at lucy.martin@maine.gov
