Grant Overview
Support for Aging Population through Technology: Bridging the Digital Divide in New Hampshire
New Hampshire's population is one of the oldest in the nation, with nearly 20% of residents aged 65 or older. As this demographic continues to grow, many older adults face significant barriers in accessing essential services, staying socially connected, and maintaining their independence due to the digital divide. Limited digital literacy and access to technology can isolate seniors, exacerbate health disparities, and hinder their ability to thrive in an increasingly online world.
This funding opportunity aims to address these challenges by supporting technology-focused initiatives that empower New Hampshire's aging population. Eligible applicants include non-profit organizations, community centers, and educational institutions with a proven track record of delivering digital literacy training and technology support programs tailored to the needs of older adults.
Successful projects will outline comprehensive strategies to provide seniors with the skills, devices, and connectivity needed to confidently navigate the digital landscape. Funding can be used for curriculum development, one-on-one training, equipment distribution, and the establishment of technology hubs or help desks within senior-serving organizations.
By investing in technology support for older adults, this program seeks to enhance their quality of life, foster greater social inclusion, and enable them to live independently for longer. Improved digital skills and access can help seniors access telehealth services, manage their finances, stay connected with loved ones, and engage with their communities in meaningful ways.
Unlike many of its neighboring states, New Hampshire's older population is more geographically dispersed, with a significant share residing in rural areas. This funding opportunity recognizes the state's unique demographic landscape and prioritizes solutions that address the distinct technology needs and barriers faced by seniors in both urban and rural communities.
