Social connection is one of the most powerful and most overlooked drivers of health for older adults.

Our report with LifeLoop, The Case for Social Wellness, brings together decades of
research. Strong social relationships are tied to improved longevity. Higher social activity is linked to 38% lower dementia risk. Social isolation adds an estimated $6.7 billion a year in Medicare spending.

Senior living is already delivering social wellness at scale. The opportunity now is for policy to recognize it, through the SENIOR Act, Older Americans Act reauthorization, and cost-effective care models that reward prevention.

We are grateful to Senator Rick Scott, Senator Tina Smith, Senator Raphael Warnock, and the Senate Special Committee on Aging for their leadership on this issue.

Explore the research and resources:

Senior living communities are already delivering social wellness every day. The opportunity now is to quantify it, optimize it, and strategically position it within the healthcare ecosystem. Investments in people, technology, and value-based care partnerships can help scale this impact.
