Abstract
New Hampshire’s population is becoming increasingly diverse. Between 2000 and 2010, racial and ethnic minorities
made up 50% of the state’s population growth, and today 20% of the population in both Manchester and Nashua
is from diverse backgrounds. This signifies that the state’s future workforce will be increasingly diverse. Healthcare
employers across the state are already seeing these changes in their patient populations and workforce and realizing
that they will need to tap into a more diverse worker pool to fill necessary positions in the future.
