Description

Laura Donorfio describes a 2024 class project in which college students helped a lifelong learning group for older adults widen its membership. The class, on adulthood and aging, teamed with the group's diversity arm to map ride options for seniors in their town. Poor transport can shut older adults out of such programs.

The term-long project ran in four phases, from listing ride services to pitching pilot ideas. The group's head joined monthly check-ins to keep plans real. It closed with a formal report, a short summary, and even career coaching for the students. Lessons on working across age gaps close the account.
