Description: Intergenerational programming has been found to be an effective strategy for dispelling age-related stereotypes, reducing social isolation, and increasing self-worth for participants of all ages. Whether you are interested in starting or enhancing a program, join us to learn about promising practices in partnership development, program planning, participant engagement , and evaluation. Hear about exciting intergenerational program models and begin to re-imagine how generations can work together to combat the loneliness epidemic and strengthen communities. This virtual workshop is part of a series and was made possible by the generous support of the New York Community Trust and New York City Council Member Margaret Chin.
