Isolation has been hard for all of us to combat within the past year. Most forms of communication have for the most part turned virtual, making phone calls, text messages and Zoom meetings the primary way of being able to reach one another.
For some groups in society, these methods of online communication, such as texting or video chatting, may just not be as practical.
