Since 2019, Stay Work Play has been a leading voice for nonpartisan, issues-driven advocacy in New Hampshire, shaping policies that influence the state's ability to attract and retain young talent. At the heart of this effort is the Stay Work Play Advocacy Network—a passionate group of volunteers who meet virtually from December through June.
Each meeting features guest speakers, including policy experts and lawmakers, who provide valuable insights on the key issues impacting young people in New Hampshire. These discussions guide the Committee’s recommendations and help shape Stay Work Play’s policy positions.
Join us on December 1, 2026, at Noon for the kick off of the 2026 Advocacy Network season!
What Young Granite Staters Are Saying: A Virtual Briefing & Advocacy Network Discussion
What does New Hampshire’s next generation really need to stay, work, and thrive in the 603?
Join Stay Work Play NH for a virtual presentation and conversation exploring the newly released 2025 Quality of Life Index Survey results — the only statewide dataset capturing how young people feel about living and building a future in New Hampshire.
We’ll walk through key findings on housing affordability, childcare access, community belonging, and workplace satisfaction, and discuss what these insights mean for our shared advocacy priorities in the year ahead.
Following the presentation, we’ll open the floor for dialogue with our Advocacy Network — a growing coalition of community leaders, employers, and engaged citizens working to advance policies that strengthen opportunity and belonging for young Granite Staters.
Together, we’ll reflect on what the data tells us, identify where advocacy is most needed, and explore how Stay Work Play can use these findings to guide its 2026 policy agenda.
