The SDSU Center for Excellence in Aging & Longevity Intergenerational Call Hub program connects student volunteers with older adults to combat loneliness through regular social phone calls. This initiative fosters meaningful intergenerational relationships, allowing students to learn from the wisdom of older adults while providing companionship and support. By bridging the generational gap, the program enhances the emotional well-being of older participants and enriches students’ understanding of aging, aiming to create a caring community where both youth and seniors thrive through connection and shared experiences.
