April NH Men's Commission Reporting

Foster's Daily Democrat printed this article about the April meeting of the NH Commission on the Status of Men. One of the noteworthy eye-openers of the meeting was testimony by Lee Newman of VIP/SAFE-NH, who explained that the NH Coalition Against Domestic Violence refuses to designate "grantee status" to his program because he works predominantly with male victims. The Commission continues to make headway in research on male suicide in NH, but little else appears to be in the works. Only two of the seven Commissioners showed up at April's meeting, which also hindered progress since a quorum was not present.
