Amidst a viral pandemic, physical distancing, and increasingly turbulent times, we’ve experienced a dramatic rise in isolation and loneliness in people of all ages, especially older adults. More than one of four adults aged 50 to 80 reported that they felt isolated even before the outbreak. MPTF and the Milken Institute Center for the Future of Aging have joined together to host this conference because now, more than ever, aging service and other community-based organizations seek inspiration and tangible ideas of what they can do right away to reduce loneliness among older adults. ~ Register here.
