Granite State Health Care Coalition

Who We Are

The Granite State Health Care Coalition (GSHCC) is funded by a grant through the New Hampshire Department of Health and Human Services (NH DHHS) from the United States department of health and Human Services (HHS), Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (ASPR). The GSHCC is a statewide network of key representatives from public and private health and safety organizations that help communities prepare, respond, and recover from incidents impacting the New Hampshire healthcare system. The GSHCC serves as a direct support to the State Emergency Support Function-8 (ESF-8). The NH DHHS Emergency Services Unit (ESU) serves as the ESF-8 lead for the State of New Hampshire.
