The impact of an innovative intergenerational respite program on workforce development through attitude change in college student volunteers

TimeOut@UCLA is an intergenerational program that trains and mobilizes undergraduate college students to provide companionship to older adults with early stage Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia. The program goals are: (1) strengthen student interest and experience in geriatrics and gerontology; (2) reduce the isolation of frail older adults; and, (3) support family caregivers. The aim of this study was to determine program’s effect on students' knowledge and attitudes toward people with Alzheimer's disease.
