Currently, we are helping to mitigate difficulties related to the digital divide experienced by many Long Beach residents. The digital divide is the gap between underprivileged populations who lack or have limited access to information and communication technologies and privileged populations who have access. Our intergenerational program Youth Teach Seniors Technology (YTST) will continue our efforts to mitigate difficulties related to the digital divide in the Greater Long Beach community. Providing a unique opportunity for seniors to learn about the latest technology trends and innovations from youth mentors - allowing youth mentors to be a part of the initiative to close the digital divide and make positive contributions to society. Our intergenerational program, Youth Teach Seniors Technology (YTST), focuses on bridging the digital divide in an aging demographic, targeting at-risk SHORTSTOP and JEM Program participants (age 10-18) and senior adults (age 65+). YTST aims to provide a unique opportunity for seniors to learn about technology from youth mentors and for our youth to receive the benefits and empowerment of culturally affirming programming while having an adult role model. We believe that intergenerational learning can have a positive impact on both the mentor and mentee, and we are committed to creating a safe and supportive environment for this exchange to take place. Intergenerational mentorship opportunities foster mutual learning and growth. The mentorship relationship is based on mutual respect, trust, and a shared commitment to personal growth and development. 40051 40051 141051 Jonathan Jackson President 2.00 0 0 0 Austin Diggs Treasurer 2.00 0 0 0 Sopheahp Pream SEcretary 2.00 0 0 0 Sandra Hardy Board 2.00 0 0 0 Sharon Diggs-Jackson Executive Director 20.00 0 0 5134 Ginger Moore Board 5.00 0 0 0 false false false false false false false false false CA Sharon Diggs-Jackson 3515 Linden Ave 56 Long Beach CA 90807 5623032750 false false false false false false false false NONE 0 NONE 0 true X 0 40000 44500 136299 95000 315799 0 25750 25750 0 40000 44500 136299 120750 341549 0 0 0 341549 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 40000 44500 136299 120750 341549 X 1.00000 1.00000 0.00000 0.00000 Part I, Line 16 16.
