State of New Hampshire Governor's Commission on Disability

The Commission’s goal is to remove the barriers, architectural or attitudinal, which bar persons with disabilities from participating in the mainstream of society.

In order to lead full and productive lives, persons with disabilities need employment, housing, education, recreation and other opportunities now available to persons without disabilities.

The Commission’s office in Concord receives over 1,000 information and referral requests per month. It responds with straight answers to persons with disabilities, service providers, legislators, and state and local officials. In an effort to eliminate barriers, the Commission provides information about the many services, laws, and regulations that affect citizens with disabilities.

The Commission also publishes a weekly newspaper column, "Beyond the Barriers", and a newsletter, THE BLUE SHEET, highlighting issues of interest to persons with disabilities and their advocates.
