Friday, May 14, 2021
from 8:30am – 10:00am
This virtual event will stream on National Church Residences’ Facebook page.
Ginna Baik is the Business Development Manager, Lead Alexa Smart Properties for Senior Living.
During these unprecedented times, the lack of access to technology from connectivity to devices for older adults have amplified the lack of resources and equity for the most underserved population in this country. In 2020, OATS, with the support of the Humana Foundation, commissioned a comprehensive research study around equity and access to technology for older adults. Their research uncovered an astounding number of 22 million older adults who do not have wireline broadband access at home. Their research also revealed “disturbing correlations between digital disengagement and race, disability, health status, educational attainment, immigration, rural residence, and, of course, income.”
Our keynote speaker will focus on the digital divide and the blueprint necessary for both policy, funding, connectivity and technologies to bring about digital inclusion and equity for older adults across the nation.
