Digital Elders are JUMPING Across the Digital Divide!

When you participate in our most popular program, The Digital Elder Project - 2-day Empowerment Retreat, you not only have the opportunity to become more culturally aware, build skills in computer operation, social media and internet navigation, make new friends, and grow as a community, but you also engage in digital storytelling! All Digital Elder graduates create a video podcast designed to educate, inspire and/or empower the African American community in some way.

Please enjoy a recent video podcast, "Jumping Across the Digital Divide"...

Although The Digital Elder Project is primarily designed for seniors and adults, strengthening intergenerational communication is a key outcome of this program. Therefore, youth are invited to participate as well! 

Please join us for the next...
