Our goal at the Clinton Township Senior Adult Life Center is to bridge the gap in the technical superhighway, allowing every age group of seniors the ability to access the vast resources of the World Wide Web, eliminating barriers and empowering self sufficiency.
We also have listed at the bottom of this page web sites that offer online tips for navigating the web, sites that are good to visit with Grandchildren, and various search engines for you to use. Senior Adult Life Center classes are forming now, please call (586) 286-9333 for more information.
