The Holidays are not an easy time for everyone. People can feel sadness, depression, isolation over times past.

This is especially true for women over 60, one-third of whom are part of the US Surgeon General’s warning about the epidemic of loneliness and isolation.

AARP’s Ethel Gathering Groups help women across the country (27,000+ in 44 States) to provide each other company, support, commiseration, and humor via private Facebook groups and local get-togethers.

Shelley Emling, Senior Director, Specialized Content at AARP and Kentucky group Member Lisa Marcellino provide insight into the program and share how easy it is to join and get support.

This is a heart-warming interview.
