Harnessing Baby Boomers’ Experience
Baby Boomers bring the advantages of experience and education, and
are motivated to make a difference. There is tremendous potential
to provide solutions to some of our most intractable social needs,
including the expanding need for independent living support.… In
addition to helping solve community needs, service offers important
benefits for Boomer volunteers. Older Americans who receive or deliver
service are more connected with the community, remain more active, and
have a more optimistic outlook.
