Description

Why Tellegacy was started. After finding out from a community Chaplain friend that older adults in retirement communities were passing away, not from a pandemic, but from an epidemic of loneliness and a broken heart due to isolation from family and friends, Jeremy Holloway, PhD, decided to create a flexible, relationship-oriented mindfulness, goal setting and guided imagery curriculum that can be facilitated by University students via phone or virtually one-on-one with older adults in retirement communities. Tellegacy program make meaningful intergenerational connections, we think it can save lives.

National Launch Marketing Strategy for the SDOH Toolkit Book

Tellegacy is preparing for the national launch of the SDOH Toolkit book, which addresses solutions for social isolation and loneliness among older adults. The goal of this project is to develop a comprehensive marketing strategy that effectively promotes the book and engages the target audience. The project involves conducting action research through targeted outreach, such as emails or surveys, to gather feedback on messaging and assess interest in speaking engagements or book purchases. Learners will apply their classroom knowledge of marketing principles to create a strategy that resonates with the intended audience, ensuring the book's successful introduction to the market. The project will focus on identifying key messaging, potential outreach channels, and strategies for engaging stakeholders interested in the book's themes.
