About this organization
Mission
Enhance quality of life for nursing home and assisted living elders (approx. 2,000) by bringing together youth, families, businesses, and organizations (approx. 3,000)
About
The youth and elders program facilitates structured, ongoing visitations between schools, and other youth groups, and nursing home residents, engaging the youth and the elders in meaningful activities and providing opportunities for relationship building. Participating schools infuse this 'service-learning' experience into their students' academic curriculum. Reading and writing are major components within the intergenerational partnerships. The family and elders program involves the training and placement of volunteers (youth, adults and families), in order that they may become companions, advocates, families for elders who have little or no visitation. The community and elders program involves the orientation, coordination and facilitation of nursing home visits for businesses and organizations. The dreams can still come true program fulfills wishes of nursing home/assisted living residents.
