Core Partners

The development and implementation of the Seniors in Cyberspace
program is a collaborative effort between Toronto Intergenerational
Partnerships (TIGP) as the lead organization, Community
MicroSkills Development Centre, The
ONeill Centre, long-term
care facility and Seneca
College of Applied Arts and Technology, Gerontology Department.

The combined expertise and strengths of these organizations facilitated
the implementation of this unique project which offers institutionalized
frail elderly persons opportunity and support in accessing computers
and information technology.

The partners of this project have worked together to develop a
project that enhances the voluntary sector by making available technology
and related supports necessary to meet its needs and strengthen
services to the frail elderly land their providers.
