Loneliness and isolation can impact anyone, but they’re especially common as we age. 

Join us for a meaningful discussion, “Breaking the Silence: Exploring Loneliness, Isolation, and Connection,” to uncover solutions and rediscover the power of human and animal connection.

Our expert panel includes:

• Geropsychologist — sharing insights on the mental and physical effects of loneliness.

Senior — sharing her personal journey, discussing the challenges of isolation and how she has found strength through community support and meaningful connections.

Representative from the Village Encinitas — talking about local community programs that help older adults stay connected and support one another.

Representative from Frosted Faces Foundation (Senior Dogs/Cats for Seniors) — highlighting the unique bond between seniors and rescue animals, and how these companions provide comfort, reduce isolation, and bring joy.

In this engaging event, we’ll explore:

• The emotional and physical toll of loneliness.

• How community programs and pet companionship can restore a sense of belonging.

• Practical strategies to create connection, no matter your circumstances.

Whether you’re navigating these challenges yourself or supporting a loved one, this seminar offers actionable solutions to help build a more connected, fulfilling life.
