Online – NH People’s Budget Community Conversation: Public Health & State Budget
May 12, 2021 @ 7:00 PM - 8:30 PM
FreeNew Hampshire people deserve a state budget that invests in our communities’ health, education, recovery, opportunity, and vitality. Not one that gives tax cuts to the wealthiest at the expense of essential services and programs. Stand with us to demand that we the people deserve a state budget that serves ALL Granite Staters!
Recently, the NH House passed the budget on a party-line vote, approving a proposal that would eliminate hundreds of positions in the Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) and underfund public health services by about $100 million.
These proposed cuts and shortfalls to DHHS are designed to pit our community services against each other. Join this event to learn more about what it would take to break down the silos in our public health system, move beyond scarcity and meet the real needs of real people.
