Generations United Information

Generations United is the only national organization dedicated to bringing every generation to the table — in policy, in practice, and in community. For more than 40 years, we've led the charge on policies that keep children with loved ones instead of entering foster care, corrected inequities facing kinship families, and built the standards professionals rely on to bring generations together. We connect community-based organizations, policymakers, and families with the policies, partnerships, and hands-on tools that make intergenerational connection the norm, not the exception. Our approach, Prevention Through Connection™, keeps families and communities strong before a crisis hits and supports people of all ages. Because the biggest challenges facing families today — isolation, caregiving, and the cost of growing up and growing older — can’t be solved one generation at a time. Together, we are building a future where no one has to grow up, grow older, or care alone.
