Franklin is a small city where the Pemigewasset and Winnipesaukee rivers meet to form the Merrimack. Parents of students at Franklin High School and Franklin Middle School often call after a teacher or pediatrician raises a concern, and manufacturing, healthcare and retail workers often reach out when stress has turned into symptoms that do not go away.
