Home Visit
- Interns are paired together to visit a DOROT older adult who lives on the Upper West or east side for 45-60 minutes of friendly conversation and companionship. The visit is scheduled between 4:30 PM and 6:30 PM. Choose one afternoon per week: Mondays-Thursdays
Intergenerational Chess
- Share your love chess and make a friend across the chess board! Each week older adults learn and play chess with a group of Teen Interns. Mondays, 4:30-6:00pm at DOROT
Tech Help
- Older Adults bring their own device and meet with one of our Teen Interns for one hour to ask technology questions, receive support, and make a new connection! Wednesdays, 4:30-6:00pm at DOROT
Music Appreciation
- An intergenerational exploration of the music that holds distinct meaning to you in your life journey. Each session, we will share and listen to songs as a group, as well as practice the core rituals of singing, melody, and rhythm with no prior experience necessary! Thursdays 4:30 PM - 6:00 PM
