Seniors
Older Americans are increasingly engaged online, with more than 40% of people over the age of 65 actively using social media platforms like Facebook.

In the shadow of the coronavirus pandemic and consequential elections, spotting misinformation online can be a matter of life, death and democracy. That’s where MediaWise for Seniors comes in.
