Gen Z – The Loneliest Generation in the United States Today
What can we do now to make a difference for our children and the generations to come in order to avoid the epidemic of loneliness, stress, anxiety and disconnection that 18-22 year-olds are experiencing now?

According to a recent survey by the global health service company Cigna, the loneliest generation in the United States today is not the oldest Americans but the youngest, specifically young adults between 18 and 22 years old. Students may have thousands of friends online, but few in real life. As a result, they feel disconnected from what it means to be human. The influence of many factors and the reality of the world we now live in has directly contributed to a crippling sense of anxiety and alienation in students across the country, but the question is what can we do to put a stop to it for the generations to come?
