That's not the case. These people have lives, very active lives. We want to show that to these young people. I am very proud of this program because it rebuilds the connection that has been lost between the youth and the elderly. The program was initiated in mid-March, Humphrey said.
Students meet two times a week to learn about themselves and others in the community.
Humphrey said one of the assignments the students were involved with incorporated researching their family history on computers. But the first thing to contributing is getting to know someone. For this week's task, students had to learn how to interview. Students in the class were separated into groups of two. The pair then invited one senior to sit with them and talk about their life's history.
