 Community hubs can make it easier to feel a sense of belonging. Often, people think about community centers, parks, and schools as community hubs, and they certainly are. Many other community spaces and organizations can also serve that role—even those initiated
 for other reasons, like libraries and YMCAs. In this session, you’ll hear how the Wilmington (DE) Institute Free Library and the Greensboro (NC) YMCA expanded their missions and purposefully expanded beyond the walls of their buildings to create intergenerational
 and cross-neighborhood connection opportunities that reduce social isolation and increase a sense of wellbeing. Their experiences can inspire other organizations to serve as community hubs, as well. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
