Abstract
The proportion of Vermont's population aged 65 and older has been increasing. Vermont's rural landscape can contribute to isolation among older adults, which is a significant risk factor for mental health conditions like anxiety, depression, and suicidal thoughts. Socialization significantly impacts well-being by decreasing a sense of loneliness, enhancing emotional support, and improving cognitive health in older adults. My goal is to create a poster to outline resources of connection and activities near Milton to help residents build strong community networks and improve quality of life.
