'These senior adults find themselves without adequate resources and in need of solutions to problems never anticipated. Underfinanced social service agencies mandated to solve such problems have an incomplete and inef- fectively distributed network for solving problems. Older adults lack information about and access to educational, social service and hum;in development opportunities. They lack an effective communications n~~t- work wt,ich facilitates social interaction, a sense of community and input into institutions, agencies, businesses and government structures which directly impact their lives. New communications technology, such as cable television, and the existing learning resources in the region, especially this institutions of higher education, are not yet utilized to solve these problems. As a result, older adults lack access to the mainstream of society and live socially and educationally impoverished Lives. PACE will enable older adults in San Diego to satisfy learning, informational and social service needs through a network of public access cable television and Learning Resource Centers. PACt~; will use communications technology and the nation's largest cable television system to improve postsecondary educational. opportunities for one of the largest concentrations of older adults in the nation. The project will inter-connect older adults through a microwave-linked public access cable television network, uniting the two major cable systems in the San lliego region. It will develop three self-sustaining Learning Ite- source Centers which :,ill function as video training and production facilities, located a;: existing centers of senior activity, administered by seniors. It will develop professionally produced programs on toFics identified by seniors as being socially beneficial. It will train seniors to develop and produce their own programming. Utilization of the cable network will multiply the outreach and effectiveness of institutions and agencies providing educational and o[her services to the elderly by increasing target group awareness and use of available social service and educational opportunities. It will foster learner-centered change and increase user identification with the senior community while improving target audience self-image and perceived importance to the community. By bringing together postsecondary educational institutions, so~_ial service agencies and senior community groups to take advantage of the communications potential of cable technology, PACE serves as a national model for community controlled information exchange systems. ~i- ~oS~ 11/14/77 PACE Fact Sheet "T'ACF." = Public Access Cabletelevision by and for Elders Purpose: To provide a communications network f~~r senior adults in the San Diego area.
