  Families taking care of children with disabilities can often benefit from financial assistance. For example, families may have uninsured medical costs or bills for their child's special equipment or services. While many New Hampshire agencies and charities can help in several ways, such as by providing direct services to children, families may also need extra funds for a variety of purposes, and should look for organizations that give grants to individuals.
