Pages 33-41 | Published online: 09 Jul 2006
 

Abstract

Although frequently overlooked as school volunteers, older adults and public schools can mutually benefit from expanded utilization of elders as volunteers. This paper reviews the role and scope of school volunteerism and suggests ways to integrate Retired Senior Volunteer Program participants into school volunteer programs. Schools need the assistance of volunteers and elders can benefit from serving in such socially meaningful roles.
