On Thursday, May 1, 2025, Palmetto Care Connections (PCC) hosted a digital literacy training class at the Mullins Library in Marion County, welcoming 18 participants from the local community.
This free class is part of PCC’s ongoing mission to improve digital access and health equity in South Carolina’s rural and underserved areas. Attendees received instruction on foundational digital skills including internet safety, creating and using email accounts, accessing telehealth services, and navigating commonly used websites.
Each participant also received a tablet and hands-on support to help them set up and use the device confidently and independently.
PCC’s digital literacy program is designed to empower individuals with the knowledge and tools they need to stay connected, manage their health online, and access essential services. Classes are held in community-focused settings like libraries and health clinics to make learning approachable and convenient.
Palmetto Care Connections continues to expand its outreach through strategic partnerships across the state. By bringing digital literacy directly to local communities, PCC is helping ensure no South Carolinian is left behind in the digital age.
