About Helen F. Wilson

The Honorable Helen F. Wilson was instrumental in the founding of the Rockingham County Adult Medical Day Program. An advocate for the elderly and needy of Rockingham County, Ms. Wilson served on the Rockingham County Board of Commissioners and was a member of the New Hampshire House of Representatives, where she was a very active member in the County Delegation. Commissioner Wilson recognized the intrinsic value of the County community offering a program for individuals who needed a level of direct care and social activities but who were much better off continuing to live in their home and community. It was out of this vision that the Rockingham County Adult Medical Day Program was born in 1980. Today the program continues to thrive and is a vital part of the County's long-term care program.
