After the LA Wildfires, imagine the number of seniors struggling to complete insurance forms, FEMA applications, Red Cross Registry, and other digital forms while consumed with feelings of loss and despair. Generation Connect offers a virtual solution connecting older adults with trained, tech-savvy, compassionate teens who can help them on demand, when they need it most. In exchange, teens earn community service hours (and possibly compensation through workforce programs, if they qualify), empathy, social graces, and work-readiness skills.
