Founded in 1984 with a grant from the Interfaith Council on Aging and the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation, the Sisters of St. Joseph of Carondelet developed a community-based model to meet a growing need in the United States.

Report
Out of the goodness of our hearts, sometimes the most simple acts of kindness can have the greatest impact on a person's life. CAREGIVERS intergenerational program "Building Bridges" brings high school students into the homes of frail elders to visit and to assist them. Under adult supervision at all times, students do the more physically demanding tasks.
