In the Accelerating Initiative, the Rochester Nexus Team implemented a highly successful pilot in an academic-community partnership with Lifespan,to address the needs of homebound older adults .Lifespan began strategic planning to determine how their program could scale as the COVID-19 pandemic hit. Planning has been put on pause as New York grapples with the COVID-19 crisis. The Rochester Nexus Team will present their pilot program, and then we will pivot to an interactive, consultive, solutions-oriented webinar to brainstorm how this team and others could adapt student-staff home visits in order to meet the needs of older adults in the community and advance student learning. This will be an opportunity for creativity and innovation. The webinar is Wednesday, May 13, 2020 - 2:00 pm to 3:00 pm CDT
