Montgomery County (PA) has a teen support talk line, offering peer-to-peer support for kids needing to unload to another kid. Great idea! And something that is just as needed for the olders among us.
Imagine a SeniorTalkLine, offering peer-to-peer support to people who can feel just as alone, adrift & alienated as any teenager?! With public funds for program development at low ebb & private endeavors focused on money-producing rather than difference-making projects, a relatively low-cost talk line could do a lot of good with a modest budget.
Stirring up support - - another item for my older2elder "to-do" lis!!
