Abstract
Without question, there is a growing interest in intergenerational programs and related policy thrusts. During the past 30 years, foundations, nonprofit organiza tions, and other private efforts have actively promoted intergenerational program models, and public funds have facilitated the spread of various approaches to inter generational service. The title of the 1995 White House Conference on AgingAmerica Now and into the 21st Century: Generations Aging Together with Indepen dence, Opportunity, and Dignity-speaks to the growing influence of intergenera tional programs and themes in policy discussions about both younger and older Americans.
