What NH EFA funds can pay for

New Hampshire's EFA Parent Handbook lists the categories state law allows for Education Freedom Account funds. The Children's Scholarship Fund reviews each order against them.

If your service or product isn't on the list, families can't buy it with program funds, however good it is. Check before you apply.
