Sunny days…sweeping the clouds away…on our way to where the air is sweet — EHC can tell you how to get to Sesame Street! 🌈💚☀️🍪Our team had the best night at Intown Concord’s Halloween Howl, handing out 300 goodie bags to families in our community. This is one of our favorite events of the year, and we had so much fun together as a team!
✨
We also were incredibly proud to support PBS — a trusted, educational resource that keeps creativity and learning accessible to every child. PBS enriches children’s lives through imagination and kindness, and their mission matters now more than ever!

💜🖤🤍 It’s Asexual Awareness Week!

This week we celebrate the ace community — honoring the diversity of experiences, identities, and voices within it. Ace Week is about visibility, breaking down misconceptions, and reminding the world that asexuality is a valid part of the LGBTQIA+ community.

To everyone in the ace community: we see you, we celebrate you, and your story matters. 💜

🎉 Today marks 51 years of our health center! 🎉

On October 19, 1974, we opened our doors as NH Women’s Health Services — in the very same building we remain in today. Through name changes and expanded services, our roots and mission have never wavered: to provide accessible, compassionate care to our community. 💜

At last year’s 50th anniversary gala, we celebrated alongside our founding mothers (our first “board of directors”) AND the original staff pictured in this iconic opening day photo. Incredibly, 3 of the 5 pictured, Albert B., Sue B., and Pat W. (along with additional 1974 staff) stood together once again. Our entire current team was also in attendance — and to see those who started it all alongside those carrying the mission forward was truly powerful.

Here’s to 51 years of essential health care — and to the future we continue to build, together. Stronger every day. 💜

🎃 One week from today is Intown Concord’s Halloween Howl! 👻

Join the fun next Friday from 5:30–7 PM — downtown will be filled with trick-or-treating, games, music, and more!

EHC has loved this event for years, and for the past three, our team has gone all out with super fun group costumes.

We might be a little further up Main Street, but you’ll definitely want to stop by and visit us! Our team members Cecile and Cassie have made 300 amazing goodie bags filled with candy, toys, stickers, and more!

Bring your family downtown — you won’t want to miss the Howl or our costume this year!
Here’s a hint… ❤️🍪🐦🗑📺...any guesses? 😉

✨ Grantee Spotlight✨

Equality Health Center
Concord

We’re proud to spotlight Equality Health Center as a 2024 Reproductive and Sexual Healthcare Access Fund Grantee whose work reflects our commitment to building voice, money, and power for women and girls in New Hampshire.

🏥 Equality Health Center is a non-profit health care facility that provides individualized and compassionate health care to people throughout New England. We empower our clients and communities through advocacy, education, outreach, and the provision of quality, non-judgmental care. We are New Hampshire’s longest standing abortion provider.

❤️‍🩹🌈 “The need for community-based clinics like ours cannot be overstated. As a result of breast and cervical cancer screenings given by our providers, three Equality Health patients are now receiving cancer treatment. Preventative screenings and well care can be lifesaving, in addition to the critical services like abortion, gender-affirming care, and STI treatment that we‘re proud to provide to our wonderful community.” -Jinelle Hall, Executive Director, Equality Health Center

Pronouns aren’t new — they’re how we talk about each other every day.
Using the right pronouns isn’t about politics, it’s about respect. It’s about seeing people for who they are and honoring their identities. 🌈

Ask. Share. Normalize.
Because everyone deserves to be referred to with care. 💜

✨ Looking to make a difference for EHC patients and staff? ✨
Our Amazon Wishlist is a great way to donate the things we truly need — shipped directly to our door!

As a small nonprofit health center, budgets are tight. On our Wishlist, you’ll find the everyday essentials we normally buy ourselves — things like toilet paper, laundry detergent, maxi pads, office supplies, etc. We also include items that support our outreach efforts and help keep things organized behind the scenes.

And yes — we throw in some fun things, too! A few small touches that make our space bright, welcoming, and comfortable for both patients and staff! 💜

Snacks and juice are some of our biggest needs! We go through them quickly — they’re a small but meaningful comfort for abortion patients and folks getting their blood drawn. Something as simple as a mini pack of Cheez-Its and apple juice can make a big difference.

So many things around EHC have come from Wishlist donations; the lamps in our waiting room, our free coffee station, the rainbow umbrellas our clinic escorts use and the comfy gowns our patients wear.

We are endlessly grateful for the love and generosity our community continues to show us. Every donation — big or small — helps us create a safe, welcoming, and affirming space for all who walk through our doors. 💜

🛒 Take a look at our list (and check back often — it’s always changing!)

We are so grateful for 10 nights of charitable gaming at Revo Casino in Keene!
Ten nights of revenue being donated to healthcare and to those who need it most — donations that could truly save someone’s life.

Charitable gaming can make a big difference for nonprofits like us. It’s a tremendous contribution that helps us continue providing breast exams and breast checks, and to partner with the New Hampshire Breast and Cervical Cancer Program to make these vital services available to those without insurance.

We’re all out pink — spreading awareness, celebrating survivors, honoring those we’ve lost…and maybe playing a slot machine or two while we’re at it! 💞🎰

🌈💜 Happy National Coming Out Day! 💜🌈
Here’s to living loud, proud, and unapologetically YOU. Whether you’re out, on the way, or keeping it cozy in the closet, you’re valid, loved, and celebrated today & every day.✨

We were thrilled to join our sister clinic, the Lovering Health Center, at their Cheers for Choice event last night!
It was an incredible evening of shared values, fundraising for essential health care, and community celebration. The Leftist Marching Band brought amazing energy, The Hawthorne was a beautiful venue and the screening of No One Asked You was deeply powerful — we were even lucky enough to meet the director, Ruth Leitman!

We’re so grateful for Lovering and all that they do for our community and for the compassionate care they provide every day. It’s incredible that New Hampshire has not one but two independent clinics — and we need your support to keep this vital work going. 💙
