Connection Stories

The GenWell Project has been working to share stories from our community of those who have fully embraced the message and mission of the Human Connection Movement. These stories will help provide clarity on the importance of human connection, the benefits of human connection and provide examples of GenWell Projects that have driven beautiful results. We hope you enjoy hearing these stories.
