The Social Cure
When we look around us at the problems in society, it can seem overwhelming. Where do you even start to find solutions to the biggest social issues? How do things like where we live, our childhood experiences, our social supports, our race, and sexual identities affect our efforts towards happiness and health? The Social Cure is a place where we have candid conversations about social and health issues.
