ADULTS-HEALTH-AND-DEVELOPMENTAL-PROGRAM - DESCRIPTIVE AND EVALUATIVE DATA

The intergenerational Adults' Health and Developmental Program was described and evaluative data presented. A survey conducted at the end of the AH DP found that over 80% of the sample perceived improvement in personal health, well-being, body image, physical efficiency, intellectual stimulation, and staff-member intimacy. Results were discussed in terms of ongoing sequential modification or the “building blocks” approach such as an all-University Adult Development Complex, and implementation of THE AHDP into other institutional settings such as VA Medical Care Centers. © 1979 Oxford University Press.
