Together Against Loneliness

Everyone feels lonely sometimes. But for many people with Down syndrome and other intellectual disabilities, loneliness is a more common and painful experience.

Their families can feel lonely too, and feel cut off from support.

Loneliness can feel like different things:
–  Not having a group of friends or a community to belong to.
–  Not having a close, special person to share your feelings with.

Loneliness is a serious problem.

Loneliness is not just a sad feeling. It is bad for our health and happiness. It can make people feel anxious or depressed. It can also harm physical health.
