Providing resources for building intergenerational relationships between youth and seniors, thus improving the quality of life for both groups.
This is the impact:
Senior Comment: A connection with a child is crucial to their development but also to mine, in fact I think I learn as much as they do. The impact for the child would be that they realize they are listened to and are being heard and therefore they must be valuable.
Student Comment: I like grandparent program because we get snacks! I can learn my listening and patient skills. I also love learning about my grandparent! School grandparents also make me like coming to school more.
