Redwood City, CA 94063
Exclusive Peninsula Family Service Thought Leader Series with limited seating.
This Thought Leader event will examine the problem of loneliness in our community, which can silently affect the lives of anyone, regardless of age, gender, economic status, or cultural background. In May 2023, The US Surgeon General released an advisory calling attention to the public health crisis of loneliness, isolation, and lack of connection. On January 30, 2024, the San Mateo County Board of Supervisors voted to approve a resolution declaring loneliness a health emergency, and pledged to explore ideas that promote social connection. A keynote speaker and panel of experts will discuss the challenges we face related to loneliness, and solutions to overcome loneliness as well as issues related to it.
Reserve your ticket today and join us on April 3, 2024!
