Impact

Human to Human (H2H)

The Human to Human (H2H) project creates safe, vulnerable spaces where New Yorkers can foster meaningful connections. According to a report from the World Economic Forum, loneliness is a growing epidemic where nearly half of Americans feel isolated. As one of the biggest cities in the world, H2H aims to create a space for people to know they are not alone in New York City. The goal is to foster meaningful connections across all demographics. H2H currently facilitates conversations in various spaces including but not limited to middle schools, senior centers, boys and girls clubs, fitness organizations etc. and measure impact via a post-session survey by seeing how much people feel connected to a greater community. In the next 6 months, H2H plans to compile and document all facilitation activities and steps and our lessons learned to share with others who want to develop deeper connections within their communities.
