Maine Commission for Women STATE HOUSE, AUGUSTA, MAINE 04333 (207) 289-3418

Joseph E. Brennan Governor

Ruth C. Joseph Chairperson

The Commission supports the National Plan of Action adopted at the Women's Conference in Houston in 1977.

The Commission is comprised of two standing committees;

1. The Legislative Committee which monitors all legislation of concern to women, prioritizes it, and presents its recommendations of procedure to support or not support to the Commission. This Committee may also recommend that the Commission draft legislation if it feels that it is necessary.

2. The Personnel Resource Committee, includes a talent bank of resumes submitted to the Commission by women to be available for recommendations to boards and commissions and other positions in state government.

A valuable source of expertise and experience was opened to us when Governor Joseph E. Brennan appointed liaisons from all state agencies to become an intricate part of Commission activity. The liaisons offer information about opportunities or lack of for women in their departments.

A service that we see that we can offer women of Maine is to be an information and referral service. This will be a support system and directory for women with problems. We do not anticipate solving problems but referring women to the proper agency or person to get the help they seek. This information may be sought through our liaison network.

We will continue to serve the women of Maine by publicly endorsing all legislation and programs dealing with women. We will continue to promote and inform women of educational and informational sessions and workshop until the day that under the law and in the minds and actions of all, women are equal.
