About Us

History

Easterseals NH opened its doors in 1936 as the NH Society for Crippled Children under the leadership of NH’s first orthopedic surgeon Ezra Jones and Crotched Mountain founder Harry Gregg. At that time, the organization provided services to children out of a small office in Nashua, NH.

For more than 83 years, Easterseals NH has provided exceptional services to ensure we change the way the world defines and views disability by making profound, positive differences in people’s lives every day.

Easterseals NH services include: Child Development Centers and Family Resource Center, Early Supports and Services, Autism Services, Residential & Educational Services, Transportation Services, Camps and Recreation, Community Based Services, Workforce Development, Military & Veterans Services, Senior Services, Substance Abuse Treatment, and Oral Health Services.

As a leader in social services for individuals with disabilities and special needs, Easterseals NH employs more than 1,800 individuals who serve more than 28,000 children, adults and seniors with our 12 core programs throughout the state
