The U.S. Surgeon General called "social connection" a human need as important as food, water and shelter. Loneliness is a way that social connection is unmet because of poor quality in relationships. What does it mean, then, when there is a loneliness epidemic and what kind of poor quality are we talking about? This talk goes through fundamental questions, to really grasp the meaning of social connection and loneliness as a social species. It is based on recent research completed by Kyla Bauer for their Ph.D. program. The first half of the talk will give an overview of the research. The last half of the talk will be an activity. Attendees can be the first to test out tools for designing a loneliness intervention in a community that you care about.

What Causes Adult Loneliness In Our Communities And How To Address It?

Sponsored by the American Atheists, this group promotes a greater level of engagement by secular community advocates with state and local governments.
​
American Atheists has produced resources that assist with state and local advocacy by tracking and analyzing state laws, providing model legislation, warning about dangerous campaigns by Christian nationalists, and providing data about nonreligious people and communities to better allow local advocates to communicate the importance of these issues.
​
Members will learn to directly engage in state advocacy work by encouraging lawmakers to support or oppose specific bills, submitting testimony, and encouraging grassroots outreach through action alerts.
Come check us out from June - Oct. If you want to join our advocacy, we ask that you commit to tracking one legislative session (Jan-May).
