Research Abstract	The objectives of this study were (1) to clarify the changes of social concern on intergenerational programs, and (2) to determine the current state and the issue with intergenerational programs. The results show that social concern on the intergenerational programs has increased. However, most intergenerational programs were infrequent and quite time intensive. Furthermore, several issues mentioned must be addressed in order to create programs that have wide-ranging benefits in each community. Finally, we invented the check-list for the intergenerational program with specialists of intergenerational programs.
