Did you see our recent blog post on menopause? Any menopause resources you would recommend?

Some women (like my mother and grandmother, who had hysterectomies in their late 40s) have no symptoms during their menopausal journey. Lucky them! In the U.S. (because research shows that cultural attitudes about menopause correlate with the types and frequency of symptoms), one of the most common....

Mary Marshall, CCGG President, is participating in Beyond Stories, a virtual event that grew out of a storytelling partnership through The Legacy Project’s Intergenerational Changemakers Fellowship. What began as shared stories quickly became a powerful reminder of how much we gain when generations truly listen to one another.

This virtual roundtable brings together experts from public health, communication, medicine, technology, and aging advocacy to explore the power of intergenerational relationships and what it means to do things with older adults rather than for them.

Join us on Sunday, March 29th at 4 PM EST / 1PM PST via Zoom for a thoughtful cross-generational conversation about how collaboration across generations can shape innovation, community, and the future of aging. We hope you’ll attend!
