The universe of current adult day care center administrators (n = 36) and a stratified random sample of child day care center administrators (n = 300) in Virginia were surveyed to gather information about professionals' perceptions of the benefits and problems associated with providing regular intergenerational exchanges in day care settings. Findings of a qualitative analysis revealed that problems attributed to generational differences and organizational/service delivery issues were counterbalanced by sociocultural and organizational benefits.
