Abstract: The US Surgeon General (SG) Vivek Murthy recently published a public health advisory, which describes “our epidemic of loneliness and isolation,” details the public health burden posed by these trends, and highlights some strategies for ameliorating it (Murthy, 2023). Our aim in this Supplement is to call attention to some of what is underemphasized in the SG’s report, in the hope of building on his important Advisory to develop a yet more comprehensive account of the drivers of the decline of belonging in contemporary America, and of a path back toward a richly connected society.
