With much sadness we share the news that our dear friend and much respected and admired activist, Bob Philbrook, passed away. Since the very earliest days of legal services in Maine, Bob has been known to our community as a tireless advocate for low-income people and those with disabilities. He has served on numerous boards and advisory committees, including the Medicaid Advisory Committee and the board of Pine Tree Legal Assistance. For many years Bob served as Vice President of the low income coalition the Maine Association of Interdependent Neighborhoods, and was a founder of the Portland welfare rights group, We Who Care in the early 70’s, a group that continues to fight for fairness and economic security for low income families today.
