Acadia Benefits, an IMA Company

Proud to spend time giving back with Maine Needs during IMA Financial Group, Inc.’s annual I Make A Difference Day 💙

Together, we sorted clothing donations and assembled personal care bags filled with essential items to support community members in need. We’re grateful for the opportunity to partner with organizations making a meaningful impact across Maine every day.

Thank you to Maine Needs for welcoming us and for all that you do for our communities. And a special thank you to Erin Cromack for organizing the day and to Jen Dean for always helping us capture these meaningful moments.

The Annual Maine HR Convention
The Annual Maine HR Convention

One week. That’s it.

The 31st Annual Maine HR Convention is almost here, and everything we’ve been building toward is about to come to life.

From powerful keynotes to real conversations with HR peers who get it, this is your space to step away from the day-to-day and focus on what’s next.

If you’re already registered, get ready. Your week of connection, insight, and inspiration starts now.

If you’ve been meaning to sign up, this is your moment.

Registration is closing soon, and you don’t want to be the one hearing about it after the fact.

Join us for the conversations that matter, the ideas that challenge you, and the community that keeps you going.

May 4-7, 2026 | Samoset Resort | Rockport, Maine
