Seniors First
Helping older adults navigate the digital world.
CETAT’s connect Seniors First program bridges the digital divide by pairing compassionate volunteers with older adults who need help using smartphones, tablets, and the internet. Volunteers work side-by-side with seniors—either in person or virtually—to teach basic tech skills, help with online safety, and boost digital confidence.
Through friendly, weekly sessions, seniors gain the confidence to connect with loved ones, access online services, and explore the digital world at their own pace. Beyond boosting digital literacy, this program fosters meaningful intergenerational relationships that reduce feelings of isolation, promote lifelong learning, and empower seniors to stay informed and engaged in a rapidly changing world.
