1 in 2 American adults experience loneliness
Department of Health & Human Services, 2023
Loneliness has the same impact on our mortality as smoking 15 cigarettes a day.
74% of people in the U.S. feel like they don’t belong in their local communities.
43% of Americans feel they don’t have meaningful relationships (e.g. people to talk to about how they really are)
Cigna Corporation, 2018
Social disconnection increases the risk of heart disease, stroke, dementia, even early death.
