Case Simulation. A study that examined the impact of youth on adults in organizations found that “adult views of young people are difficult to change…Change occurs when organizations offer [certain types of experiences to adults].” This includes when they have an opportunity to observe youth engage in community action that had real payoffs for community residents (Zeldin et. al, 2000). You are a youth worker organizing an intergenerational work group to campaign for youth jobs in your community. Adults have had no experience working with young people as partners. How would you go about setting the stage for a youth-adult partnership during this campaign? What activities might cultivate mastery for youth and adults? How might praxis apply to your efforts to build this intergenerational team? [Hint: Think of “small wins” could you build into the process leading up to the more complex campaign efforts. Consider could you make the most to these experiences to build a cohesive group.]
