Early Childhood Services

Every year in New Hampshire, hundreds of young children with unidentified disabilities enter school with learning and health issues that put them far behind their peers and have a lasting, negative effect on their ability to meet their full potential. At Easterseals NH, we believe every child deserves the right to have access to programs and services that will enhance their growth and development.

Camping / Camp Sno-Mo

Sno-Mo campers are amazing youth ages 11 to 21 who have disabilities. Some use a wheelchair, some have autism or need help joining a group, and others need special nutritional or medical help. Our camp provides accommodations so young people can focus on fun, friendship, and feeling great about what they can do. We also offer a week for individuals over 21-years old.

Residential & Educational Services

When a child has significant developmental, behavioral, and or intellectual disabilities, parents and caregivers can be challenged to meet needs at home without assistance. Easterseals NH Gammon Academy is where to turn for a solution that benefits the child and the whole family.
