This scan was conducted by researchers at the University of New Hampshire Center on Aging and Community Living. It provides information on the numerous funding opportunities that could support New Hampshire’s Collective Impact aging initiative in its work to create age-friendly communities.

For decades New Hampshire has been home to an informal network of public and private organizations called Family Resource Centers that offer high quality services to strengthen children and their families. In 2015 the legislature created performance standards and a voluntary designation system for programs serving children and their families. Designated programs are called Family Resource Centers of Quality (FRCQ), with designation being based on the national Standards of Quality for Family Strengthening and Support and NH Operational Standards for Family Resource Centers of Quality. The purpose of this report is to design a statewide infrastructure system that will support the sustained success of a system of FRCQ in the state. The report recommends creation of a central facilitating organization operating collaboratively with others to offer services that will result in an expanded field of high quality services for families.

This report presents findings after bringing together more than 60 organizations, including providers of all types and sizes, all of the state's community mental health centers, all of the major private and public insurers, and government and other stakeholders. This NH Behavioral Health Integration Learning Collaborative (BHI) shares information on evidence-based practice for integrated behavioral health in primary care. This report also shares NH data on integration practices.
