Description

One Sky is a private, non-profit organization under contract with the state of New Hampshire since 1983 (formerly Region VIII Community Developmental Services). Our role is to plan, fund, provide and oversee community-based services and supports for children and adults with developmental disabilities and acquired brain disorders in Northern Rockingham County. Our mission is to assist those we serve to participate as valued members in the lives of their communities. Our volunteer Board of Directors includes consumers and family members, business people, educators and homemakers.

Services are provided with state and federal funds through our contract with the NH Bureau of Developmental Services (BDS). Individuals in need of day and residential services who have been found eligible, but for whom we do not have funding, are placed on a wait list. When new funds become available, they are allocated based on criteria developed by BDS. Some interim supports are provided when possible.
