Join GSIL’s Advocacy Team as we take you on a tour of the NH State House and through the process of how a bill becomes a law. Learn first-hand how a bill is written, where public hearings take place, and so much more! You’ll even have a chance to see our lawmakers in action. Lunch will be provided at the State House Cafe ($15 limit per person). We look forward to having you join us!

After a recent spinal cord injury resulted in paraplegia, Kevin’s life soon changed. The staff at GSIL worked closely with him through his rehabilitation, offering resources, peer support and mentoring as well as assisting him in networking with his community to set goals. Kevin obtained 2 accessible vehicles, had his own apartment and sat on several different disability related committees. He participated in barrier.
free recreation and peer support groups. With some guidance from GSIL staff, Kevin obtained a hand cycle through Challenge Athletes Foundation. In the fall of 2019, he did the research to find an accessible subsidized apartment. He spoke with his employer about a transfer in jobs to the franchise in the city to which he was moving. He now had a job waiting for him as well!
