Older Adults
Describe the challenge you want to address:
Senior citizens in the community lack technology knowledge which prevents them from accessing proper resources and socializing with family or friends
What is the solution to the challenge?
Develop a computer program for introduction of technology skills to adults in senior centers. This program would include the use of smart phones. Program should be advertised throughout the community. Upon completion of the program senior would receive a device such as a tablet or laptop.
