February 17 @ 6:00 pm 8:00 pm

Former U.S. Surgeon General, Vivek Murthey, MD, MBA called loneliness a public health epidemic. “Loneliness is a normal part of the human experience…but prolonged loneliness and disconnection can be harmful to our health. It is time we address this issue to improve our well-being.” This program will explore strategies for improving our well-being while minimizing feelings of loneliness.
