No I am not familiar with that name in particular. There were talks about s= uch a program years ago, where the Bd/Dept of E would pay centers for such = services but the teachers/councilors in these programs have to be NYS/NYC T= eacher Certified. Then it failed because a lot of community teachers were n= ot licensed or certified, and it goes against NYS Protocol in community cen= ter children's services guide lines.
Right now I'm in the middle of setting up a proposal/business guide for an = up-to-date computer literacy program which includes robotics, IT, and so on= . But it needs to include both Microsoft and Linux/Open Source resources. U= nder Teens the Raspberry Pi will be used in part of their STEM education, a= nd if we submit an application to Raspberrypi.org, they can give us a grant= and materials, providing that we have something going with the Raspberry P= i. Unfortunately I have 4 medical appointments this week, one I already had= . The problems I see is that the Raspberry Pi Foundation is in the UK, that= is going to take time to process. They have funded programs in Africa and = China, so funding a US Program is not a problem.
Intel and Microsoft also has grants for community computer literacy if thei= r products are used, with the easiest to get is to set up an Office App Cer= tification course. And the Gates Foundation always gives out for educationa= l programs. Finally, the city gov. does have program source funding but tha= t is a maze and a half for this rat to run through. Maybe Michael R. can ru= n that maze?
A social worker would be for the community center itself, and not for a com= puter literacy program persay. But their basic function is to make sure tha= t the families in the program are properly serviced and look for other serv= ices they need. When I was in LSNC, I dealt with a family where 1/2 of them= were dying from AIDS (mother, father, 2 babies were infected with the moth= er and the babies dying, but there were the father and 4 more young girls i= n the family to deal with - all under 9). God's Love We Deliver only gave f= ood to the parents, and the kids were starving. I spend 2 hours on the phon= e with them and managed to get GLWD to give the children the food they need= ed. Plus my program then served food as well, with at first from donations = from a Roy Rogers in the area, they threw out so much food everyday it is n= ot even funny. So we got them to donate the food to the program monday - fr= iday, all we had to do was pick it up. That lasted for a couple of years before they went out of business - the building they were in was tor= n down, not they were running in the red. Other services for the families w= ould also be required but this is on the community center level and not the= program level.
So how far are we taking this?
