The intergenerational opportunities I come across most often pair olders with children or teens, who may fun to do projects with but not people we'd rely upon as our support team. It's a challenge to meet people in their 40s-early 60s with whom we can develop mutually beneficial relationships. Opportunities to meet interested solo agers in that age range would be great, we'd have a lot to offer one another and provide them with a positive, less daunting model for what it really means to get old.

A helpful and thoughtful piece. As you indicate human connection is key. It's best to think about this and start when we are a little younger so these connections are in place when we are older and need them.
