The Mission:
"We help older adults, families, and community partners build digital literacy and increase awareness of telehealth through guides and videos we have created. This way connections, independence, and care become easier every day.
Healthy aging is easier when people can reach family, friends, services, and care. Our free, plain-language guides and videos make smartphones and virtual care feel simpler and safer to use —at home and in the community. Organizations can adapt and edit these materials for their own needs. We provide a starting point.
Virtual Connections has been working since 2021 to build digital literacy and increase awareness of telehealth and what it offers. With support from Michigan Health Endowment Fund grants to Michigan State University’s School of Social Work our program model originated through work supporting home-delivered meal recipients, like Meals on Wheels, later expanding to serve older adults, caregivers, and others who may benefit from the resources we have developed."
