About
Aging and age-ism are themes that are not commonly discussed in the setting of college campuses. As many of the original founders and volunteers in the organization are now in college, this program is directed towards general college-aged youth audiences to create more of a conversation about the importance of intergenerational connections and dialogues around aging.
In this program, our goal is to host age-fairs at various colleges and universities each year that allow students of all different interests and backgrounds to engage in dialogue and participate in activities that build empathy surrounding aging. We are partnering with various researchers and care facility staff to develop engaging and educational activities to help demystify the process of aging and spread the importance of intergenerational connections to our society today. Further, we will be introducing a Coll-AGE service program at some of the schools we are collaborating with.
