Mission Statement
LINKages fosters reciprocal and meaningful intergenerational friendships between youth and seniors. Our Vision is to create a strong and vibrant community where youth and seniors thrive.
About This Cause
For more than 25 years, LINKages programs have been building bridges between generations - reducing isolation, improving emotional health, developing volunteerism, leadership skills, engaged citizens, and fostering and celebrating age-friendly communities. We connect youth and seniors in a spirit of cooperation, friendship and respect. Both generations benefit from sharing their experiences, skills, and knowledge. Youth and senior participants report an increase in self-confidence, an increase in social emotional skills, increased community connection, and increased likelihood to volunteer in the future.
