The Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) is made up of more than 2,500 staff across four 24/7 facilities, eight divisions, eleven district offices, and dozens of bureaus and programs. On any given day, DHHS staff are serving residents throughout the state, from Nashua to Berlin and Claremont to Portsmouth.
But no matter where we work or where we fall within the DHHS organization, we are all united by a single vision: achieving optimal health and well-being for everyone in New Hampshire.
It’s that vision that fuels our collaboration with community partners and stakeholders. It’s that vision that drives us to care for and protect the most vulnerable Granite Staters. It’s that vision that pushes us to increase access to supports and services, promote thriving communities throughout the state, and invest in the workforce that serves New Hampshire residents every day.
And it’s that vision that’s embodied in our new logo.
The new logo reflects our collective vision in a singular voice. It groups all our work under one brand umbrella that will help residents better understand who we are and what we do. We hope the lotus becomes a recognizable symbol of DHHS, a trusted source of health information and service provision.
We chose the lotus because it represents health and healing – two outcomes DHHS strives to attain for all Granite Staters. The colors of the logo are reminiscent of New Hampshire’s striking landscapes, from the deep blue of our lakes and sea to the purple, magenta, and yellow hues of the sunset over the peaks of our White Mountains.
Taken together, the new DHHS logo is a symbol of our united commitment -- across divisions, bureaus, programs, and communities -- to come together and pursue health and well-being for all Granite Staters. We hope you join us.
