We are a non-profit based in 

Austin, TX with a mission of building connectedness through long-lasting and inclusive friendship. Our goal is to provide useful tools that will help adults build the friendships and social safety nets they envision for themselves.  We were founded in November of 2023 in response to the U.S. Surgeon General's advisory on the epidemic of social isolation and loneliness. We provide many events for folks in Austin to get together and interact in friendship. We also run a Friendship Focus series where we discuss topics that are significant to making friends as adults.  


You can learn more about the Surgeon General's advisory here. 


We hope to see you soon!
