 Mr. George Edwards (75 years old) was always afraid of computers until the MOLC opened its computer lab.Ý He attended the orientation secession and heard many seniors that were older than he saying that they were going to take the class.Ý Not to be outdone, he decided that if they can do it, so could he and enrolled. Today, because of the Seniorsí computer classes Mr. Edwards has successfully navigated the digital divide, and as a Client Advocate for the Arc of Northern Virginia, he is able to prepare and submit all of his paperwork electronically to the appropriate sources without fear or hesitation. |
