Lonely No More (LNM) is a nationally recognized social engagement initiative specifically designed to support rural and remote older adults. The agenda/discussions in LNM’s weekly group calls (Elder Circles) are not ‘programmed’, older adult participants decide the topics and peer volunteers support equal participation and facilitation of the call. LNM additionally uses a one-on-one, peer based model enabling participant-centered health coaching dialogues so older adults can create their own actions plans to address their issues beyond their participation in the weekly circles.
