Problems like social isolation, the youth mental health epidemic and the caregiving crisis can look like separate emergencies, but they share at least one root cause: communities built to keep generations apart.

Join CoGenerate Senior Research Fellow and associate professor at the Brown School at Washington University in St. Louis Dr. Cal J. Halvorsen for a conversation with Dr. Derenda M. Schubert, author of the new book The Power of a Joyful Village: How Intergenerational Solutions and Age-Friendly Communities Can Heal Us All and CEO of Bridge Meadows.

Schubert makes the case for age-friendly communities intentionally designed so people across generations can connect, build real safety nets, and develop innovative solutions for today’s pressing challenges together.

You’ll leave with practical ideas for strengthening connection across age in your home, in your neighborhood and in your community.
