LEWISTON — SeniorsPlus, western Maine’s designated Area Agency on Aging, has been named one of the Best Places to Work in Maine.

The nonprofit has been recognized in the medium-sized company category by the Maine State Council of the Society for Human Resource Management, Best Companies Group and BridgeTower Media.
