A drug hook-up. Unlike your average dealer, a connection is usually someone you're in good with who will "hook you up", or give you the narcotics you want at a lower price than the average street value. A must have for any druggie.

connecticate - authentically communicating to create meaningful connection with others
connectication - the process by which one creates Meaningful Connection through Authentic Communication.
Background: The amount of conflict, loneliness, mental health issues and addiction that is present in society, is increasingly concerning. There is often discussion about conflict resolution and how to solve these and many other social issues. The long term answer is not in management and solutions, but in prevention. Prevention through understanding, open honest, authentic communication, support and meaningful connection.
Lack of communication skills and connection to self, others and community are often indicated as being a part of the problem. There is no sense of belonging - a basic human need. Therefore, by default, part of the solution is to improve communication skills and increase connection.
This got me thinking, is there a word that describes this process, that incorporates clear communication to create connection? It appeared that there was not, so, Connectication was created.

Being 'connected' refers to people who are in touch with their surroundings, a sense of true self, and have a deep, instinctual empathy for fellow human beings. They are often perceived as 'odd' or eccentric by others but are extremely intelligent and often misunderstood and underestimated.
'Connected' people will frequently feel deep sadness, crippling frustration, an un-expressable rage and/or proactive rebellion when presented with the un-justices of the world, prejudice, discrimination, fickle bullshit, and the cruelties and atrocities committed by their fellow human beings.
Some people believe that everyone is potentially 'connected', depending on whether they open their minds to their capacity to connect to themselves, fellow humans and the world around them; whilst others will maintain that tests have shown only 2% of the worlds population demonstrate the associated qualities and characteristics of someone who is 'connected' and is a result of genetic trends and programming.
Many 'connected' people have been burdened with the term 'gifted and talented', whilst this term identifies their inquisitive minds and ability to learn, it can act to segregate someone from their peers, and encourage them to develop a sense of social awkwardness, perceived aloofness and/ or extreme bouts of arrogance.
