About the Program
Bridging the Technology Divide
The digital divide refers to both technology accessibility and the digital literacy needed to use technology effectively. We provide diversified offerings to help resolve this inequity, including classes in basic computer use, Microsoft and Google programs, and accessing medical and banking portals. Digital skills are also part of our workplace literacy training for employers, and adults who want to build reading skills first can start with one-on-one reading tutoring.
