Lonely? You're not alone. Loneliness has plenty of company these days, and it hits people with and without disabilities in alarming numbers. Just having a disability, particularly an intellectual and/or developmental disability, is a critical risk factor. In this episode, issue editors share the highlights from the Impact issue on loneliness. Consider the latest research, hear about promising programs tackling loneliness and social isolation, and learn what loneliness feels like from a variety of voices in the disability community.
