Special THANK YOU to 2023 sponsors, partners and supporters:
OPPORTUNITY TO COLLABORATE FURTHER: DRMI is a nonprofit 501c3 organization with a mission to help all people to live more enriching lives. We accomplish our mission by partnering youth with seniors to teach/learn technology through our Geeks & Gramps Program (co-sponsored by the RRF Foundation for Aging); providing anger management, substance abuse/misuse, and other human/emotional development programs behind the prison walls, court-ordered individuals and to returning citizens. We understand that as we collaborate and partner with other community organizations, we help to build capacity, which helps us all to help individuals in our communities to live more productive, fulfilled and enriched lives.
