Responders Together NH

Impact Statement:

Your support directly protects those who protect us. By funding peer-led wellness and Critical Incident Stress Management (CISM) programs, you help prevent post-traumatic stress injury, substance use disorders, suicide, and other occupational health challenges faced by law enforcement, fire/EMS, dispatchers, corrections officers, and military service members. These programs strengthen families, preserve careers, and - most importantly - save lives.

With your donation, we can continue our mission to build a preventative and responsive peer network for active and retired responders and military personnel - at no cost to participants or departments already facing significant budget constraints.

Programs Provided at No Cost:

• Daily peer-written, app-based workouts
• Weekly Open Gym and group workouts, plus monthly yoga for peers and families at Kilter Fitness (Bristol)
• Weekly peers-only Mixed Martial Arts classes at Lakes Region Vale Tudo (Laconia)
• Monthly “Reboot” peers-only support meetings
• Monthly family-friendly game nights
• Seasonal hiking groups for peers and families
• Group and individual CISM peer support and mental health training

Our programs are facilitated by trained peers and family members and overseen by a volunteer licensed clinician. We proudly partner with Kilter Fitness and Lakes Region Vale Tudo, who generously provide space and coaching in support of our mission.

Why Peer Support Matters:

Connection with relatable peers and physical fitness are proven, evidence-based strategies that reduce both the mental and physical hazards of these professions. Responders Together NH exists to remove barriers to access and create safe, trusted spaces where responders and their families can connect, network, and grow stronger together.

Thank you for your donation and commitment to those who serve our communities every day.
