Help Restore Community Mental Health Post-Hurricane Helene

We are the medicine

The loneliness epidemic is making us sick. Despair around disconnection is real.

SeekHealing offers non-profit social health programs that bring people together to heal trauma and ignite mutual support within communities. We facilitate the power of authentic relationship and human connection.

We envision a world where everyone belongs, where resilient and compassionate communities thrive in a slower world—a world people no longer wish to escape from, but live in together.

There is no mental health without social health.

The science is clear: Our society faces a devastating loneliness epidemic that’s fueled by a lack of meaningful connection and community. The trauma of social isolation is deeply linked to physical and mental health crises, including increased risks of heart disease, obesity, depression, and premature death. Rising loneliness also correlates with higher rates of suicide, overdose, psychosis, and domestic violence.

In response to the loneliness crisis and its impact, there is a new wave of social health organizations emerging to support more effective delivery of mental health and social support services to those most disproportionately impacted. In 2018, SeekHealing was one of the first social health organizations in the US to successfully pilot a model for dedicated social health programming, which it demonstrated in both rural and urban communities in Western North Carolina.
