The advocacy group worked hard for over a year to get this computer class for seniors. There are 6 students in each class which is on Tuesdays and Thursday from 3:00 to 4:30. The classes are small so the students can get 1-1 attention. The library hired a teacher specifically for this class and promoted getting volunteers to help. Great job and congratulations for your accomplishment! Are you tired of the cuts to Medical, Medicare and InHome Supportive Services??
