Genesis is an intergenerational model that supports young mothers aging out of foster care with one child and elders. The goal of the project is based upon a Generations of Hope model, which provides community as an intervention to support a vulnerable population. There is the opportunity to develop true neighboring and mutual support between the young mothers and the elders with minimal staff involvement.
