PROGRAM PROVES AGE IS JUST A NUMBER  

For those 65+ and ready for a fun and rewarding virtual experience this summer, DOROT”™s New York City and White Plains 2021 Summer Teen Internship program awaits. 

The program brings together 65+ adults with a diverse group of teens for a highly collaborative, mutually engaging summer of fun, friendship, skill-building and service during two, four-week sessions: June 28- July 22 and July 27”“ August 17.  Together with their high school partners, older adult volunteers participate in art sessions, improv and play-building and discussion groups to explore subjects as diverse as current issues in the news, music trends and their own personal histories 

“We engage teens and older adults in positive experiences to build social connections and to break down barriers caused by ageism, ” said Judith Turner, senior program officer at DOROT.  “This program is just one example of how DOROT brings the generations together to create strong bonds between people of all ages to promote a greater understanding between the generations.  

“We serve the Jewish and wider community, bringing the generations together in a mutually beneficial partnership of elders, volunteers and professionals.
