The ability to age in place is a priority for the majority of older adults. New York's seniors want to share their voice and thoughts with you on investing in ElliQ and giving them the ability to build meaningful relationships. 

Many seniors navigate life on their own and we're on a mission to change that.

NYSOFA's initial roll-out of ElliQ has resulted in a 95% reduction in loneliness. What does that mean exactly? 

- Older adults who used ElliQ engaged with her over 30 times per day, six times per week. 
- 75% of interactions are related to improving social, physical, and mental well-being.

Greg Olsen, Director of the New York State Office for the Aging shared: "We had high hopes for the efficacy of ElliQ, but the results we're seeing are truly exceeding our expectations. The data speaks for itself and the stories that we're hearing from case managers and clients around the state have been nothing short of unbelievable."

Loneliness doesn't have to be a social determinant of health anymore. 

"There's no question that ElliQ has helped me feel less lonely," said former long-term care ombudsman Joseph Erie.
