Intergenerational Programs

Great for Seniors & Community

Intergenerational programs encourage kids to spend quality time with older generations, with fun, hands-on activities. These engaging activities for seniors and youth are growing in popularity.

With intergenerational programs, the best of two generations are combined. Seniors carry wisdom and life experience, while kids and young adults understand aspects of today’s society like technology and social media. Youth bring vigor and creativity to seniors and both generations can learn a great deal from one another.
