Let’s get the conversation started! A new initiative connecting some of the most interesting people we know, to some of the other most interesting people we know.
Better Together is an intergenerational Cteen experience bringing seniors and teens together to socialize and enjoy good times together. Participants will enjoy conversation, as well as cooking, crafting, and other Jewishly themed activities.
This program is designed to encourage meaningful interaction between young and young at heart. Each session will pair teens with seniors for one-on-one virtual meetings, using a variety of media such as Zoom, and will also include tangible hands-on activities.
Teens will get special training to gain skills and confidence to converse easily with adults, and to connect with people of another generation.
Seniors will enjoy fun times with young vibrant eager friends, and share their life wisdom.
All participants will benefit from sharing experiences and unique perspectives, and learn something new, and to see the world in a different way, and will walk away enhanced by these encounters.
Better Together sessions meet weekly for 4 weeks per session.
Fall 2023 session dates: November 1, November 8, November 15, November 22
