New Hampshire's Medicaid program faces threats on both the federal and state level

After being found floating in a pool in Florida following a drug overdose, Shawn Cannizzaro, a Boston native, moved to Littleton to get help with his substance use disorder at a recovery house.

“I’m saying to myself, ‘What am I doing going to Littleton, New Hampshire?” he said. “It’s a blizzard out. It’s the end of January. I’m coming off every drug you can imagine — alcohol, crack, cocaine, heroin, everything. I am a mess, and I do not want to live anymore.”
