Become an NHARCH Member

Join NHARCH

Thank you for your interest in our association!

NHARCH has grown considerably in recent years to become a dynamic and professional association representing residential care and assisted living facilities throughout New Hampshire. It is the statewide component of Argentum, and represents more residential care/assisted living providers than any other group in the state.

NHARCH promotes residential care and assisted living throughout the state of New Hampshire and works closely with regulators and facility owners/administrators to assure the quality of living and care for residents in member homes. We provide meaningful referral services to member facilities for those seeking to find needed care for a loved one, patient or client. The association is also our eyes and ears in the halls of the NH State House and within DHHS as rules and laws with potential impacts on our industry are proposed, reviewed and renewed by the legislature and our state partners. 

NHARCH is the primary provider of educational forums and programs for those working in residential care/assisted living. We provide a very active and informative educational program for the industry. Members can attend these programs at special discount rates that non-members cannot enjoy. Our popular, fall annual convention and membership meetings throughout the year also provide an excellent opportunity for learning and networking.

Other activities NHARCH is engaged in:

  • Legislative and regulatory monitoring, reporting, and lobbying for the industry
  • Active public relations programming to enhance the image and professionalism of the industry
  • Strong advocates for our members and the industry
  • Liaison to state and federal agency regulators, advocating members’ positions
  • Maintains liaison and communication with the Assisted Living Federation of America
  • Free list-serve program to members as a way to communicate between members via e-mail
  • Website with links to individual member homes
