SunRise-Gary Scarano Highlights Jordan Mittler of Mittler Senior Technologies
Jordan Mittler gave his grandparents smartphones — gifts that initially created more problems than they solved.

"I wasn't expecting them to be so confused," he admits.

Sensing that other seniors could benefit from his tech tutorials, the high school junior from New York City (center) visited a local nursing home and volunteered assistance to anyone who wanted it. He soon expanded his operations, now called Mittler Senior Technology, launching a free, 10-week course to seniors at his synagogue.

Last year, when the pandemic rendered in-person meetings impossible, Mittler made a logical pivot, taking his classes virtual for more than 2,000 participants and updating his curriculum to include practical yet essential skills: FaceTiming, ordering from Amazon, accessing online newspapers and learning Zoom etiquette.

"Social isolation is a huge problem, especially during COVID," he says. "Technology is the answer."

On our SunRise Video Podcast we highlight positive stories about today's youth with current events.

Our Mission is to provide post incarcerated and 'at-risk' young adults with a supportive community to ensure a smooth transition back into society to reduce crime and recidivism. We assist with education, career guidance, life skills; allowing them to turn their dreams into reality and becoming self-sustaining individuals.
