Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | In recent decades, there has been an increase in family fragmentation between the young and old. Social scientists believe that, for members of both age groups, ideal and appropriate psychosocial development requires intergenerational connections - thus, the concept of an "intergenerational program" has appeared. This new book on intergenerational programs describes the relationship between intergenerational practice and theory by combining details about current programs with developmental and societal information that ground the field. Presenting the components of intergenerational programs that impact the field's history, current status, and future, the book introduces the basic theoretical information that undergirds the need for an appropriateness of this human service initiative. This book will be of interest to students, academics, and professionals in a variety of social and human service areas: gerontology, psychology, early childhood, mental health and family counseling, education, social work, and intergenerational studies. |
