(Ken Crawford) The Janet Goeske Foundation in Riverside is set to unveil California's first AT&T Connected Learning Center designed specifically for older adults. The launch event on Thursday marks a significant step in bridging the digital divide for seniors. **Driving the news:** AT&T has invested $50,000 and provided technology resources, including 19 desktop computers and 100 laptops, to create a dedicated digital learning space at the 25,000-square-foot facility. - The center aims to address the fact that 25% of seniors have never used the internet. **Why it matters:** The Riverside location is part of AT&T's national initiative to establish 100 Connected Learning Centers across the country by 2027, but it's the first to focus exclusively on older adults. - The launch coincides with National Senior Citizens Day and will feature remarks from local and regional officials. **The big picture:** This initiative is part of a broader transformation at the Janet Goeske Foundation, which now serves 100,000 annual visitors through various programs. - Future plans include a $4.5 million expansion and the introduction of advanced technologies like 3D printing and robotics. **What's next:** The foundation plans to expand its model regionally through a "senior tour" to share resources across Riverside County and the Inland Empire.
