The six agencies receiving funds are: Aroostook County Action Program, Presque Isle; Community Concepts Inc., South Paris; Kennebec Valley Community Action Program, Waterville; Penquis Community Action Program, Bangor; Waldo Community Action Partners, Belfast; and Western Maine Community Action, East Wilton.
In total, the DOE doled out nearly $120 million in federal stimulus funds to as many organizations nationwide.
