Structured Opportunities for Connection to Improve Aging-related Loneliness

The goal of this early phase clinical trial is to determine the impact of participation in planned social activities among adults 55 years of age or older, who report feelings of loneliness. The main questions the study aims to answer are: * With the availability of a personalized community activity plan, will patients with loneliness participate in two hours of social activity each week? * Will 2 hours/week of planned social activities in the community reduce individual reports of loneliness? Participants will meet with a community coordinator to identify community activities of interest to them and then participate, in-person or virtually, in these activities over a 6 month period. Patients will complete a series of surveys at the start of the study and then at 1, 3 and 6 months later.

Inclusion Criteria: * Patients 55 years of age or older attending an outpatient visit at an Endeavor Health primary care practice site in Evanston, IL.; * Screened positive for loneliness (often, some of the time, or occasionally) using the one-item Loneliness Screener; * Able to provide informed consent for study participation; * Speaks and understands English language. Exclusion Criteria: * Prisoners, pregnant women, children and those who are determined to be unable to provide consent will be excluded. Non-English speakers will also be excluded for this specific pilot study since group social activities offered in Evanston and being leveraged for this research initiative are only offered in English.
