What happens when you pair older homeowners with college students who can't afford housing? John Levis, business owner and co-founder of Odd Couples Housing, and Dr. Brian Carpenter, Professor of Psychological & Brain Sciences at Washington University, discuss how it can be a perfect match. Odd Couples Housing brings together healthy, active adults with compatible and responsible younger adults to share housing. Living and learning together, the two generations find mutual support, share expenses and household responsibilities, and discover a range of social and educational benefits.
