🎉 Join Us in Celebrating: Wins "AT&T Connected Learning Award!" 🎉

We're thrilled to announce that YES Workforce has been honored with the 4th Quarter AT&T Connected Learning Award! A huge thank you to DigitUnity for their support and recommendation. This is a great opportunity to enhance “digital literacy” in our community. These workshops are ideal for beginners wanting to learn and expand their personal technology knowledge.

Since we began our journey last year, our mission has been clear: to enhance community support through essential digital skills training. We believe that while many workforce programs teach a trade, they often overlook the fundamental tech skills needed in today's workplace. Thanks to this award, we can now bridge that gap with new workshops designed to boost confidence and competence in technology.

These in-person classes are designed for everyone, from complete beginners to those looking to refresh their skills. We're committed to small class sizes (minimum 10 people) to ensure everyone gets the most from their learning experience.

We're also reaching out to local organizations with computer labs who can host a workshop. This initiative supports not just the unemployed or workers looking to upskill, but also seniors in our community who wish to stay connected in our digital world.

Wake-Up this will be a Mean Election 2024:
Well, it looks like all kinds of disqualification for our votes are in the air. This should be posted all over social media so that people know this is likely to happen and to ensure their vote counts and is not "disqualified."

Your vote counts so pay attention.
