MultiGen Team

What We Do:  We create in-person and virtual experiences (Wisdom Circles) for small groups of people (10 or so) to be in a circle community over a period of 6 months to learn from others across different generations (20 yrs. – 80+ yrs. old)

Our Vision is to cultivate a sense of understanding that transcends age, where the collective energy of each participant fosters a rich exchange of stories, lessons, and perspectives. As we explore the transformative potential of intergenerational relationships, we celebrate the rich tapestry of life’s journeys and recognize the unique value that each generation brings to our shared existence. Through mutual respect, understanding, and a commitment to learning from one another, we seek a collaborative environment that empowers each soul to contribute, learn, and thrive.
