Thank you to Connectedly participant Elsie for writing and sharing a poem about her experience in Connectedly's Homebound Counseling groups!

Homebound weekly group counseling and support sessions are held by phone to help homebound older adults build social connections and foster positive self-worth. Participants share concerns, joys, sorrows, coping tools, and resources for the situations they face. Discussion topics may include trauma and loss, building resilience while making challenging decisions, and coping with dependence as we age. To join a group, contact Debby Davis, Social Worker at [email protected].

The PSU Goodling team that oversaw a Connectedly family literacy grant was deeply impressed with the Philly Families Read Together program GrandFamily Educator Dionne Wright Chambers has created. Two Goodling researchers worked with Dionne to create a family literacy toolkit based on Dionne's work that can be disseminated widely. This is both a huge accomplishment and a compliment to the collaboration and creativity that drives Dionne's work in Philly Families Read Together. The toolkit is a comprehensive document with five complete family literacy lesson plans, all based on Dionne's lessons and work with grandparents.
