The New Hampshire Family Support Conference

I am David Dumont. I am married and have two children. My daughter is 12 years old and is enjoying school in Pennsylvania. My son is 8 years old and is on the autism spectrum. I have supported this conference  for a few years because it is very helpful to get together to help and support one another.

I am a Mother, Volunteer, Advocate. ” As a parent of 4 children, that job always comes first, but it’s because of that role, that I feel so strongly about the other two roles I have carved out for myself, those of volunteer and advocate.”  I am the Executive Director of ABLE NH (Advocates Building Lasting Equality in NH), www.ablenh.org.  

ABLE NH is a statewide grassroots nonprofit advocacy organization.  ABLE NH advocates for the civil and human rights of all children and adults with disabilities and promotes full participation by: improving systems of supports and services, connecting families, inspiring communities, and influencing public policy.
