Greenhouse, Esther, George Homsy and Mildred E. Warner. 2010. "Multi-generational community planning: Linking the needs of children and elders." Issue Brief. Ithaca, NY: Cornell University,

This brief discusses ways that such a mindset has started to germinate. Planners must be at the forefront of building new conversations, new coalitions and new shared strategies that link the generations and build more sustainable communities.
