They often mention feeling intimidated by technology at first, but our patient instructors and hands-on approach made it accessible and even enjoyable. The skills they gained are not just technical; they are a gateway to financial independence.

For those without a safe place to stay, our shelter is described as more than just a roof overhead—it’s a sanctuary.

I did not know anything about computers until I enrolled in the program. The class was a learning experience. I would like to thank Lynn and Pat for being so patient with me because I wanted to give up on myself several times.
