Congratulations to Val Long, Extension Specialist, emeritus, on her election as the new board chair for HNH Foundation. Val is currently the coordinator for the NH Food Stamp Nutrition Education grant, as well as an adjunct professor for the NH Technical and Community College.

The HNHfoundation's mission, which the foundation seeks to fulfill through its grantmaking process, is to help nonprofit organizations and agencies working to evaluate and promote access to quality health care insurance coverage. The Foundation was formed as a result of the merger between Blue Cross/Blue Shield of New Hampshire and Matthew Thornton Health Plan.
