"The Northern Border Regional Commission is an essential partner helping to ensure that rural communities across the Granite State get their fair share of federal resources," said Senator Shaheen. "The awards announced today will improve rural health care facilities, bolster and grow the northern outdoor economy, strengthen access to child care and much more. I'm proud to have helped secure this funding for New Hampshire and increased funding for NBRC programs in the recently passed Agriculture-FDA appropriations bill that I lead."
