Grant Overview

Connecticut seniors face significant digital divides, with over 40% lacking broadband access at home. The Digital Literacy for Seniors initiative addresses this challenge by providing targeted training programs. Unlike neighboring states, Connecticut's high percentage of older adults demands specialized digital literacy approaches. To succeed, applicants must demonstrate an understanding of Connecticut's senior demographics and ability to design user-friendly digital training programs. Key capacity gaps include limited digital infrastructure in rural areas and shortage of digital literacy trainers. Connecticut's Aging Population: The state's high percentage of seniors requires tailored digital literacy programs that address their unique needs and concerns. Projects must demonstrate an understanding of Connecticut's senior population and ability to reach underserved communities. What Capacity is Needed in Connecticut? Eligible applicants must demonstrate existing capacity to deliver digital literacy training, including trained staff and partnerships with senior centers. Application requirements include a detailed project plan, budget, and letters of support from local senior organizations. Connecticut's Digital Infrastructure: With significant investment in broadband expansion, applicants must demonstrate an understanding of the state's digital infrastructure and how their project leverages existing resources. Successful applicants will receive funding, mentorship, and access to a network of digital literacy professionals. Connecticut's Senior Centers: The state's network of senior centers provides a critical infrastructure for digital literacy programs. Projects partnering with these centers will be given priority.
