#NASWNH will be closed July 4-7. While many mark this time with celebration, we’re choosing to step back, reflect, and give our advocacy mindset a pause. Social workers know best that rest is part of the work, but we’ll return with renewed clarity and purpose.

Banning confidential birth control should be a dealbreaker. All leading medical experts agree: teens should have access to this care confidentially, which is why NH has the lowest unintended pregnancy rates in the country. #NHPolitics

Should N.H. require minors to have parental consent to get contraception? - The Boston Globe
Reproductive rights advocates say a proposal to do so would be “short-sighted and ineffective,” but Governor Ayotte says, “I do think it’s really important to have parents engaged in these decisions.”

We all know someone who relies on Medicaid. Cutting it won’t solve our budget issues, it'll just shift the costs onto NH families. Your constituents are listening and trusting you to say ‘NO’ to proposed cuts to Medicaid. @repgoodlander.bsky.social

You can’t cut $880 billion from Medicaid without cutting long-term care for NH seniors. We can’t abandon older adults and bankrupt families in the process. Cutting Medicaid = Cutting Medicare. Say ‘NO’ to these cuts! @repgoodlander.bsky.social

The majority of children enrolled in Medicaid/CHIP live in rural areas. Children are the future of New Hampshire, but cutting Medicaid is a step backward. Medicaid supports children’s health in ways we can’t afford to lose. @repgoodlander.bsky.social

Healthcare costs are out of control and families need relief, but rushing through cuts will make care more expensive and cut care for children, seniors, and people with disabilities. Say ‘NO’ to health care cuts! @repgoodlander.bsky.social

Taking care of yourself is so important. When you prioritize self care, you're able to show up as your best self for others and make a positive impact in the world. It's not selfish, it's necessary. So go ahead, give yourself the love and care you deserve. You're worth it!
