History:
In 1998,the NH Division of Elderly and Adult Services (DEAS)held public forums about New Hampshire's long term care plan, "Shaping Tomorrow's Futures". As a result of these forums, NH citizens expressed the need for community based offices that provide information and assistance to seniors, adults with disabilities and their families. The NH Legislature then enacted Senate Bill 409, mandating the establishment of a system of community-based focal points, that provide information and referral services to elderly and the chronically ill. Today, these focal points operate as the statewide ServiceLink network.
