Dr. Nancy Connolly (Medicine; Executive Director for Community Health and Well-Being, US Chamber of Connection) provides context around the current widespread issue of loneliness in the US and solutions to both prevent and alleviate it.

Dr. Connolly walks us through the data-driven six points of connection and encourages us to evaluate our own opportunities for growth in any of these points. Finally, she recommends checking out and joining the US Chamber of Connection for local events, trainings, and ideas to increase our own connections. Click here to get involved with the US Chamber of Connection.Music by Kevin MacLeod (https://incompetech.com/)
