Your Name: Current/Desired Elected Position: Your email address: Informed decisions? Comments Amy Bradley NH State Representative Wards 4, 5, 6, 7 [email protected] Yes Thank you for all you do! Jason Syversen Senator for District 16 [email protected] Yes I currently volunteer with 7 different non profits in areas from drug addiction (New Life Ministries in Manchester), helping the homeless/recovering addicts (Rise Up Staffing), food pantry (Shiloh Food Ministry), soup kitchen (Cafe 1269), and two groups fighting sexual exploitation (NCOSE and Expose), plus we started a foundation to work across different need areas. I'm spending my entire career going forward trying to make a difference and I'm particularly passionate about helping those who are less fortunate and/or disadvantaged in society. My wife and I were foster parents and have adopted, and have been on multiple mission trips to work with the desperately poor in other nations as well. Looking forward to learning more about the work that you do and fighting to protect the vulnerable populations that you serve every day.

Candace Moulton State Representative: Hillsborough district 44 [email protected] Yes I'm a registered nurse, so advocating for the disabled is a position in which I am in full agreement.

NH House of Representatives: Bedford [email protected] Yes Carla Gericke State Senate in District 20 (Manchester & Goffstown) [email protected] Yes Mark Warden State Representative [email protected] Yes George Lambert State Senate District 18 [email protected] Yes Strangely enough the second paragraph and the last are the same in my response, as that was intentional. I thought that it belonged at the end, but in the event that my response was too long to be read and digested, I wanted to put it at the top as well. I thank you for all that you do to make the lives of those you serve escape the feelings of hopelessness and loss of direction when they need the support the most, and do not know where to turn, or how even to get started. I have referred individuals to your website and services as both a selectman, State Rep, and as a private citizen. I am particularly proud of the services that you are providing to the local communities including Manchester and Litchfield, and have seen the positive results that come from giving people guidance and hope. I would like to understand how you are doing in working with your private donors to increase the value of their employers available matching contributions. An active effort to maximize the value of individual contributions by educating donors about matching gift opportunities that may be available through their employment where available will help them multiply the value of there contribution by completing a form or two. When those opportunities were available to me in the past I did not even understand the benefits of them never mind how to take advantage of them.. As an augmentation to your state and local public assistance options, I believe that many individuals may not understand the opportunity and value that comes from donation matching available from many larger employers. If you would like to engage is a separate conversation about how you might increase the value of those contributions, I would be willing to speak with someone at your organization, or to do a lecture for a Kendall Snow NH Representative - District 19 - Manchester Ward 12 [email protected] Yes I serve on the Health, Human Services and Elderly Affairs Committee

Fred Plett State Representative Hillsborough 6 [email protected] Yes Brian Chicoine State Representative [email protected] Yes Lisa Marie Freeman State Representative/ Hillsborough County District 43 [email protected] Yes As the parent of a child who has Asperger's syndrome, I have intrinsically understood the importance of Community support around Developmental issues. Families need guidance, education and direction, when navigating the system, to gain empowerment and assist their loved ones in attaining independence. As an Occupational Therapist, I professionally understand the importance of independence and the positive effects it has on one.

Cole State Representative [email protected] Yes It is a wonderful service you provide to our community, and certainly needs all the help we as legislators can provide. Dan Goldner NH State Representative - Ward 1, Manchester [email protected] Yes Patricia Cornell State Representative - District 18 [email protected] Yes My best friends daughter is a young lady with Down syndrome and has been involved with the Moore Center for many years. And as a retired guidance counselor I am well aware of the lack of services due to lack of resources.

Steve Focht State Representative Ward 7 [email protected] Yes Niki R Kelsey State Representative [email protected] Yes Melanie Renfrew-Hebert Goffstown State Representative [email protected] Yes As a mom with two young boys with autism, who has spent months working hand-and-hand with Moore Center Early Intervention services, a former Granite State Independent Living employee, and a doctor of community economic development, I believe that our country can not actually realize equality until every citizen is given opportunity to live and work to their fullest potential and define success under their own terms. It is my priority to help shape legislation for NH that is based on community impact and input. I look forward to sitting at the table with your organization, its members, and others in the community to shape the future for my children and others in our community.
