Lutheran Social Services of New England is one of several affiliate corporations of Lutheran Social Services of  New England, all of which share the common mission to “Serve and Care for People in Need in Response to Christ’s Love.” In New Hampshire as in other places we are “Called to Common Mission” with the Episcopal Church to resettle refugees in partnership with Episcopal Migration Ministries, Lutheran Immigration and Refugee Services, and Church World Service. We also provide community-based services and programs for older adults, persons with disabilities, children and youth in foster care and residential programs, adoption, and the innovative “Good News Garage.” More can be found on our web site
