Intergenerational Engagement Community of Practice
The Intergenerational Engagement Community of Practice focused on intergenerational programming and social connectedness. Thirty-one organizations represented twenty-six states across the United States and shared best-practices, areas of opportunity and ideas for growth for intergenerational programs. Programs ranged from art to housing, from smaller programs that can be implemented with minimal resources to capital projects that bring generations together, and from active programs looking to expand in new ways to new efforts with launches planned soon.
