Intergenerational Project: A Pilot Project to Bring Niagara Seniors and Children Together
In October 2014, the ECCDC launched a pilot project aimed at making it easier for child care centres and seniors homes to offer intergenerational programming. This project was made possible by a $25,000 grant from the New Horizons for Seniors Program (NHSP).
The ECCDC was pleased to work with representatives from Niagara’s early learning and child care community and local seniors programs to pilot the project, entitled Building Strong Community Connections in Niagara through Seniors and Children.
