A Learning Community for Older Adults
Senior Planet is about much more than the latest gadgets, apps, and websites. Their nonprofit organization’s purpose is to enable older adults to come together and find ways to learn, work, create, exercise, and thrive in today’s digital age. Senior Planet programs are designed around five impact areas: financial security, social engagement, creative expression, health and wellness, and civic participation. All five areas represent opportunities in the lives of older adults where technology can have a transformative effect.
Shaping the Future of Aging
Health
Build knowledge and confidence among older adults by introducing digital tools for better health, empowering older participants to begin unique exercise regimens of their own.
Social Connection
Combat isolation among older adults through social engagement programs designed to help older adults use digital tools to connect with friends and family and stay active in their communities.
Financial Resilience
Empower older adults of all income levels to leverage digital tools to increase income and benefits, save money and avoid fraud, and gain more control over financial information, planning, and processes.
