About Us

The Global Initiative

The Global Initiative on Loneliness and Connection (GILC) is comprised of national non-profit organizations committed to end the pressing global issues of loneliness and social isolation through awareness, research, supporting implementers of evidence-based practices, and advocating policy change. We support the organizations through the dissemination of system-wide, national approaches and global strategies to build social connection.

We Focus on Three Areas of Global Partnership
