About
TechProtectElders.org was non-profit founded by Arya Naeim in his junior year in college. He was motivated by both his interest in mental health and the role that technology can play in both positive and negative ways. He realized his grandparents were getting almost daily emails and text-messages there were scams, generating a lot of anxiety and fear. The goal of TechProtectElders.org is to educate and arm older individuals with the knowledge to avoid being susceptible.
