Our Mission

Island Connections seeks to provide free services to the elderly and people with disabilities on Mount Desert Island and the surrounding off-shore islands that will enable them to live independently and with a strong quality of life.


Island Connections recruits volunteers from all of the communities on Mount Desert Island to provide services on a one-on-one basis to those Island neighbors in need.

Our volunteers come from all walks of life and from all age groups. They are generous, caring people who have a
genuine concern for helping others. Each volunteer is given orientation training before working with our neighbors.

Our volunteers do not have special medical training.
