Youth-Led Programs

Generations United encourages youth to start, expand and lead intergenerational programs in their communities. We encourage all youth, and organizations who support youth in their endeavors, to check out the Youth-Led Intergenerational Toolkit and the online interactive companion guide.

The Youth-Led Intergenerational Toolkit outlines the important steps for creating programs – prepare, plan, engage, implement, share and evaluate – designed to promote intergenerational solutions to societal challenges and build stronger communities.

If you are a youth leading intergenerational programs in your community, we want to hear from you and help promote your project. Contact Generations United to share your story.
