The National Council on Aging defines intergenerational programs as "activities or programs that increase cooperation, interaction or exchange between any two generations. They involve the sharing of skills, knowledge, or experience between old and young."
The University of Hawaii, through its Cooperative Extension System, develops and implements intergenerational initiatives, studies their impact on participants and the community, and provides resource support for organizations interested in establishing intergenerational programs. Program efforts focus on documented community needs that can be addressed from an intergenerational perspective.
