Palo Alto Online published a great feature on Senior Planet @Avenidas, our newest location in the birthplace of Silicon Valley, describing the way we’re turning downtown Palo Alto into “a destination for retired tech workers and other older adults hungry to know the latest trends.” Read the full article here.

Thanks to Ryan Kawamoto for his excellent presentation on the ” Aging with Attitude, ” SeniorPlanet Program. He did a a robust explanation about the role of Senior Planet program and the services available. I am excited to learn of some easy ways to bridge the digital divide and have the opportunity to use technology to improve my writing and communication skills, and at the same time to meet new friends.
Hi there! thanks for your welcome comment! I took the liberty of sharing it with Ryan, who asked me to pass along this message:
“Thank you so much for this message, Maria, as it was my absolute pleasure to present to the San Mateo County Commission on Aging. I’d also like to thank you for your interest in our Senior Planet programming and for all of your and the commission’s hard work in supporting and serving our local older adult community.”
Are the Tech Help classes scheduled for Tues 3/24/2020 and Fri 3/28/209 still being held or have they been cancelled since I just saw that Avenides is now closed. I sent in an rsvp for classes this week.
Hi Nancy! Senior Planet @Avenidas is hosting tech help online while our centers are closed. Below is the link to the event where you can learn how to request an appointment. Thanks!

Your focus on technology for seniors is awesome. We face many challenges as technology keeps evolving. I recently started a blog also and there is much to learn. Thank you for addressing this important topic.
