From Devon Chaffee, Executive Director of the ACLU of New Hampshire:

“New Hampshire Legal Assistance is a vital resource to so many Granite Staters, and is often the only beacon of light when they have nowhere else to turn. Their clients are our neighbors here in New Hampshire, and they are survivors of domestic violence, they are minors interacting with the justice system, and they are individuals experiencing homelessness. A lack of proper funding will impact the NHLA’s ability to provide essential legal services to some of our most vulnerable who need it most, and we urge the New Hampshire legislature to fully fund the NHLA budget.”
