Does technology sometimes feel like a locked door without a key? You aren’t alone. For many of us, the digital world can feel frustrating, intimidating, or just plain exhausting. But at CCTV, we believe no one should be left behind.
Our Foundational Technology program is designed specifically for those of us who would rather be doing anything else but don't want to miss out on staying connected. We’re turning "tech stress" into community strength.
Join us online by Zoom - and an occasional in-person meetup.
Check out the Foundational Tech Resource Page. It contains videos and slides of past classes, resources, and a schedule for coming classes.
