Social connection is the foundation of our humanity, shaping how we develop empathy, trust, health, resilience, and opportunity—both as individuals and as a society. Yet more than half of people lack reliable access to it, as changing economic and social conditions weaken the relationships and environments that social connection depends on.

This is not just a personal issue. It is a societal one.

About the US Chamber of Connection
The US Chamber of Connection is the national nonprofit building the civic infrastructure needed to restore connection and trust in America. We were co-founded in Seattle by Aaron Hurst, creator of the Taproot Foundation and board.dev, and grandson of the architect of the Peace Corps.
