Stay tuned, September is a month of more growth...

This Month...

September is integration month! The Intergenerational Foundation launched Intergeneration Month with the goal to connect generations and encourage those from varying age groups to impart wisdom and learn from one another. The celebration of Intergeneration Month started out as a single day, recognized on the first Sunday of October. In 2012, Intergeneration Day was expanded to an entire month, now celebrated in September. You can commemorate this month by joining a Big Brothers/Big Sisters program, volunteering at a retirement home, or finding a shared hobby with a grandparent or grandchild.

Other notable celebrations in September include…

Labor Day
9/11 Remembrance
Self-Care Awareness Month
Suicide Awareness Month
