The MetLife Foundation and Generations United have teamed up to search for the best intergenerational communities in the country. As part of their 2013 Best Intergenerational Communities Awards, the MetLife Foundation and Generations United will select up to five communities in the United States based on standard criteria that take into account a community’s own demographics, services, programs and organizational structure. The selected communities will receive a public recognition event in Washington, DC including visits with members of Congress, national and local media exposure, a profile on Generations United’s website, publicity through Generations United’s social media outlets (e.g. Facebook and Twitter), and recognition at the 2013 Generations United International Conference.  Winning communities will also receive an award logo for use on websites and other materials, and a physical award recognizing this accomplishment. The deadline to nominate your community is November 30, 2012.  To learn more about the awards or to nominate your community, please visit the Generations United Website.
