Restoring humanity in the digital age.

Reconnect America is a nonpartisan civic initiative promoting empathy, healthy digital habits, and re-engagement strategies that mend divides and reclaim friendships.

The Problem

Social media amplifies outrage, rewards division, and erodes empathy. In one lifetime we’ve gone from undivided to unrecognizable — but division is not destiny.

“I’ve seen America go from undivided to unrecognizable in one lifetime. We can reclaim our friendships.”

— Founder
