Summary note
"The Oxford Handbook of Intergenerational Connections presents what is known about the spectrum of intergenerational initiatives in the United States and abroad. The need for connections, understanding, and respect between older adults and youth is being driven by a host of trends and challenges-including demographic shifts, workforce shortages and multi-generational teams, educational gaps and lifelong learning needs, anomie and loneliness across age-segregated groups, caregiving demands, youth and senior health and housing problems, economic insecurity, environmental losses, and rapid technological change. Drawing on advances in policy, practice, and research, the Handbook presents a comprehensive picture of the intergenerational movement, its successes and its challenges"-- Provided by publisher.
