Technology Program

Digital Connectivity Technology Program

Are you an older adult who needs a laptop but may not be able to afford one? This program provides free laptop access to help older Pennsylvanians get connected, access resources, and stay in touch with family and friends.

Technology Tutoring

Through a collaboration with the Taylor Community Library, we provide one-on-one technology training for older adults to help build skills and confidence using digital devices and online platforms. These training sessions are free, friendly, relaxed, and productive. No two sessions are the same, as we truly customize them to each older adult's individual needs, questions and interests. We let you set the pace so that stress and frustration are minimized. Sessions take place every Thursday from 3pm to 5pm at the Taylor Library. Register by calling (570) 343-1267
