Project snapshot
Greater Hood Community is bringing youth and older adults together to foster intergenerational learning and support. Roundtables, film discussions, debates, and group City Council meetings are creating a community that shows that people of all ages can collaborate to increase civic engagement. The reluctance of young people and older adults to talk to each other to create a better sense of communal identity is being broken down with each event.
