{Recorded Event] Starting Strong: Story Sharing Circles on How to Begin Intergenerational Work

How do you turn an idea for intergenerational programming into a meaningful community initiative?

Hear stories from our IG CoP team members about how they started doing intergenerational work and how it evolved to what they’re doing now!

Watch our Intergenerational Community of Practice Virtual Café as we explore the foundations of getting started with intergenerational programming. Whether you are just beginning your journey or looking to strengthen existing efforts, this interactive session will provide practical insights, peer learning opportunities, and space for connection.

Together, we discussed our key ingredients for success, including building strong partnerships, navigating logistics and planning considerations, and creating programs that foster meaningful connections across generations.

Participants had the opportunity to engage in breakout room discussions hosted by our team, and a collaborative show-and-tell session, where members shared stories, successes, lessons learned, and challenges encountered along the way. Through these conversations, we exchanged ideas and learn from one another's experiences. We captured this conversation in the share-back in the recording.

As part of our Intergenerational Community of Practice, this session reflects our commitment to Amplify, Strengthen, Connect, Support, and Build Community those working to build age-inclusive communities through collaboration, education, and shared learning.

Watch the recording to be inspired by fellow practitioners working to bring generations together.
