Share your experience

Everyone’s experience with social disconnection or connection is unique. But, human experiences often share more similarities than we realize, and by contributing a story, you can contribute to greater understanding and solutions around the world.

Please answer any of the following three questions. If you answer more than one, they don’t have to be related stories.

Note that all stories submitted will be used anonymously in research; researchers will be able to read your stories and see overall trends and themes across all stories.
