Introducing...
The DIGITAL ELDER Project
Closing the Divide & Reconstructing Self-Image for Socioeconomic Advancement

The Digital Elder Project is a traveling leadership/professional development training, designed specifically for youth, adults and seniors of African descent (ages 14-100).

It is a unique, interactive, 2-day workshop that combines instruction in basic to advanced computer operation, social media and internet navigation, with African and African American (historical & contemporary) education, exposing participants to technology's relationship to challenges and solutions in the Black community.

The DE Project is an opportunity for current and potential leaders, role models and anyone (from any ethnic background) in a position to influence or raise youth of African descent, to learn information, tools and techniques to better engage & prepare Black youth to advance in society.
