ProjectConnect

We help you build connection and community.

 
 


The antidote to loneliness is developing 5 fulfilling friendships.

We provide you with a proven step-by-step roadmap.


Loneliness and disconnection are everywhere. According to the former U.S. Surgeon General, half of Americans are lonely. The good news is, we already know the solution: meaningful connection. And we’ve developed a simple, repeatable process for creating it.

ProjectConnect has been used by over 100 organizations to build connection.

ProjectConnect is a 6-session program that helps participants get to know each other, and form the foundation for 5 fulfilling friendships. Going through the program has been shown to reduce loneliness, increase student and employee satisfaction, and best of all, participants love it!

Thousands of people have participated in a group, and 95% would recommend ProjectConnect to a friend or colleague.

If you want to build connection in your school, college, or workplace, it’s as simple as 1,2,3.

  1. Become a Certified ProjectConnect Facilitator. Attend or host a certification training to prepare one or more individuals from your organization to lead ProjectConnect groups.

  2. Run ProjectConnect groups & facilitate friendships. Facilitators lead groups of 5 (or so) participants through our easy-to-follow, evidence-based, 6-session curriculum. Group participants get to know each other, develop positive relationships, and build community!

  3. Repeat indefinitely! Once you become a certified facilitator, you can continue to facilitate ProjectConnect groups anytime, anywhere.
