We are at once happy for our grantees and disappointed for those affiliates whose hard work did not result in a grant award this year. They will expand the learning services at these centers and build two additional centers. The project will focus on ensuring the long-term sustainability of the centers so that they become a permanent community resource, like schools or libraries.
All centers emphasize public access, open lab time, and elder services.
The centers will serve low-income communities in Central and Southeast Seattle, part of a federally designated Enterprise Community. If your center was part of a collaboration that received a grant, please let us know. World Education also serves as the adult literacy clearinghouse for Massachusetts and supports research in adult basic education. In that time, she has been a continual support base for the New England region as well as being an invaluable resource for all of our centers. She will maintain her unswerving commitment to the work of technology centers as volunteer Regional Coordinator for the time being.
