Grant Overview
Connecticut's senior population faces significant challenges in accessing digital resources, with 25% of seniors lacking basic digital literacy skills. The state's rural and urban areas present different challenges for digital inclusion initiatives. Unlike neighboring states, Connecticut's high level of broadband adoption (over 90% of households have broadband) provides a foundation for digital literacy programs. Connecticut's Digital Literacy Programs for Seniors addresses this need by providing funding to nonprofit organizations that provide digital literacy training. The program prioritizes organizations serving Connecticut's rural areas, where digital literacy resources are scarce. Eligible organizations must demonstrate experience in providing digital literacy training and have a proven track record of improving digital skills among seniors. The program measures success through the number of seniors trained and the increase in digital service usage among seniors. Connecticut's rural towns, such as Barkhamsted and Goshen, face significant barriers to accessing digital resources, making this program critical. The program's focus on one-on-one training ensures that seniors receive personalized support. ## Digital Literacy in Connecticut's Rural and Urban Areas Connecticut's diverse geography presents unique challenges for digital inclusion initiatives. The program supports organizations that tailor their training to the specific needs of different regions. ## Who Should Apply in Connecticut Nonprofit organizations with experience in digital literacy training are eligible to apply. Applicants must demonstrate their ability to provide training that meets the specific needs of Connecticut's seniors. ## Measuring Success in Connecticut Success will be measured through the number of seniors trained and the impact on digital service usage among seniors.
