Technology Connection for Seniors

Avatar: Official proposal Official proposal

What problem would you like to solve?

Seniors need computer training classes because many seniors cannot use a computer well enough, not even to get on Zoom.

Why is it important to solve? Why is it relevant for the community?

This would help seniors maintain cognitive skills. They would be better able to socialize with family and friends as well as reduce isolation.

What idea do you have to address the problem?

Joint senior and youth technology class to provide training opportunities for seniors and activities for youth to teach that they can use for college applications. Some courses could be held at the senior center but others in the general public for everyone else.

Who would that help?

The many seniors in the community.

What neighborhood would benefit from your idea?

East Flatbush
