What is Digital Literacy?

How do I get involved?

Volunteer Description: Volunteers help others learn basic technology and job preparation skills. We do everything from teaching how to send an email to how to create a stellar resume. As a college student, you are more than qualified for this task. It's time to show off your technological wizardry! If you are interested, please fill out this form, or contact any of the leaders on the "Contact Us" tab with questions.

Volunteer Commitment: Volunteers commit to attend the same weekly class for the duration of the semester. During Fall and Winter, there are 10-week courses that are 1 hour per week. If you'd like to join in the middle of the semester, that's fine too! Fluency in Spanish, Russian or another language is useful for some classes, but is not required.

BECOME A LEADER

Volunteer Leader Description: There are two kinds of leadership positions: Lead Program Director and Program Director. A program only has one Lead Program Director, but multiple Program Directors. Leaders are generally responsible for overseeing recruitment, retention, and reflection with volunteers. They also coordinate service with community partners and ensure their program runs smoothly. Volunteer leaders may also share the responsibilities of volunteers as outlined in the Volunteer Description. For more information, visit our section called Be a Leader!

Volunteer Leader Commitment: In addition to volunteering, Volunteer leaders commit to a 1-hour monthly team meeting to discuss needs and make plans for the program.
