Protecting elderly Americans. Empowering the next generation.
Brobbs Connect delivers structured digital literacy and community engagement programmes to elderly Americans facing digital exclusion and online fraud, and to at-risk youth in underserved communities across Southern California.
Who We Are
Two communities. Two programmes. One coherent mission.
Brobbs Connect was founded to bring a field-tested, human-centred methodology to two of the most urgent and documented community challenges in Southern California: the digital exclusion and exploitation of elderly Americans, and the disconnection of at-risk youth from the direction and foundation they need to build productive lives.
Equip. Protect. Connect.
To deliver structured, accessible, and community-embedded digital literacy and engagement programmes that protect elderly Americans from exploitation, connect isolated seniors to the services and people they depend on, and equip at-risk youth with the digital foundation and community infrastructure they need to build meaningful lives.
Communities where no one is left behind by the digital world.
A Southern California where every elderly resident can access their government benefits, manage their finances, connect with family, and recognise online fraud safely. And where every at-risk young person has the digital literacy, vocational direction, and community connection to participate fully in the American economy.
Human-centred. Community-embedded. Outcome-measured.
We deliver programmes where the people we serve already live, meet, and gather. No unfamiliar venues. No travel required. Instruction placed at the exact point of need, supported by purpose-built companion applications, pre and post assessments, and 90-day follow-up.
Dignity. Accessibility. Evidence. Community.
Every elderly adult deserves to navigate the digital world with confidence. Every young person deserves direction, connection, and the digital foundation the modern economy requires. Prevention is more effective, more humane, and more economically rational than intervention after harm has already been done.
The Founder
Proved in Ghana. Refined in London. Applied in California.
The methodology behind NAVIGATE and GROUNDWORK was not developed in a classroom. It was built over five years at Ghana Oil Company, where a human-centred digital adoption programme helped elderly customers use a mobile payment platform across a national network of over 450 service stations, achieving over 10,000 downloads.
The insight from that experience was precise: the problem is never purely technological. It is human. The right instruction, delivered at the right moment, in the right format, for the right person turns digital access into genuine adoption. That methodology is now in Anaheim, California, applied to elderly Americans navigating government services, recognising online fraud, and connecting with family. Applied to at-risk youth who need digital literacy and direction to participate in the economy they were born into.

Where We Deliver
We come to you.
Both programmes are delivered at the community locations where the populations we serve already live and gather. Instruction is placed at the exact point of need.
NAVIGATE delivered in common areas, reaching the most isolated and fraud-vulnerable elderly residents directly where they live
Regular NAVIGATE workshops for elderly adults in Anaheim and Santa Ana community facilities
NAVIGATE at community library branches, a trusted and accessible setting for underserved elderly populations
NAVIGATE in clinic waiting areas, reaching elderly patients at their point of healthcare contact
GROUNDWORK where at-risk youth already gather, at Boys and Girls Clubs, youth centres, and school programmes
GROUNDWORK as an alternative-to-incarceration community engagement intervention for youth in the justice system
NAVIGATE at banking locations, reaching elderly customers where authorised push payment fraud most commonly begins
Both programmes through trusted faith community networks, where trust is the foundation of engagement
Affected Areas
Anaheim & Santa Ana rank among California's most burdened communities.
The red zones below — mapped by CalEnviroScreen 4.0 (SB 535, 2022 Update) — mark census tracts identified by CalEPA as disadvantaged communities carrying the highest cumulative pollution burden and socioeconomic vulnerability in the state. These are the neighbourhoods where Brobbs Connect focuses NAVIGATE and GROUNDWORK.
Testimonials
Voices from the communities we serve.
These reflections come from programme participants and the partner organisations that host NAVIGATE and GROUNDWORK in Orange County and Los Angeles County.
I was afraid to open my email. After NAVIGATE, I check my Medicare portal myself and I know what a scam looks like. The instructor came to our senior centre — I did not have to travel anywhere.
GROUNDWORK gave me a plan. I learned how to build a resume, how to talk to employers, and how to stay away from the choices that were pulling me backward. I have a job interview next week.
The programme fits into our facility schedule and the follow-up means we see real retention, not just a one-day workshop. Our residents ask when the next session is.
The National Crisis We Address
The need is documented. The urgency is real.
