Sesame Workshop and Quest Diagnostics as part of the Quest for Health Equity (Q4HE) initiative
are working together to create a bilingual (English and Spanish), multimedia program that helps all
families build healthy habits as a foundation for lifelong well-being. This effort addresses systemic
barriers to health care and helps improve access to the critical resources every family needs to stay
well. The latest materials showcase how there are many ways to support families in being healthy
in both mind and body. The new resources include two videos and a digital storybook.
Below you’ll find sample social media copy to share these resources with your community. We
thank you for your commitment and support as we continue in our mission to help all children grow
smarter, stronger, and kinder.

According to UN-Habitat, the world needs to build 96,000 affordable homes every day to address the
global housing crisis by 2030. Yet, better utilizing existing housing stock—through options such as shared
housing—can make a significant dent in the need to build more housing. With college students often
challenged to find affordable housing and many older adults living alone in homes with spare bedrooms,
these two groups are increasingly benefitting from living together. Universities are often well-suited to
facilitate students living and learning with older adults in nearby communities. Intentionally fostering
intergenerational engagement through places and programs can reduce loneliness, mitigate ageist
stereotypes, and help both groups to thrive.
