Linking Generations Society of Alberta

Linking Generations continues to address the need for Community Connectedness, Social Responsibility, and Inclusion. Our programs connect w/ individuals from all stages of life, all cultures & all religions to contribute to an overall "improved health" of the community. This has been a challenging year for our seniors. As Linking Generations navigated a new world created by this challenging COVID global pandemic, the need for intergenerational connections between seniors and... youth became more evident than ever before. COVID reinforced how critical it is that our community seniors be connected to family and to friends. With severe visiting restrictions placed at all senior facilities, many seniors had little or no contact with the outside world. We look ahead to this coming year knowing that the program is sound, but that we need to continue to adapt. What we saw as priorities at this time last year have had to change. We have proven our programs can switch to a largely virtual format, knowing that it is still second best to meeting face to face. We see ongoing growing demand for our programs locally and further afield. We have our eyes on what comes next for Linking and we are confident that we remain on the right track.

Ensuring our seniors and youth continue to build relationshi[ps.

Thank you to all of our healthcare professionals!

I had a great visit today with Debbie Sinclair from Linking Generations. She stopped by my office today to talk to about all the great things they are doing to ...connect youth and seniors in our community. Over 300 youth and seniors participate in their program.
