Neighborhood Network Center
The Neighborhood Network
Center is a
community
resource center which offers internet access, computer literacy
training, GED
preparation classes, as well workforce development opportunities (job
readiness
skills, resume development and
employment placement). The center is
composed of community partners,
such as Meridian Community College GED Program and Lauderdale County Extension Services which
provides after
school youth development and tutorial programs, and AmeriCorps provides
on the
job construction training opportunities for selected community
residents. This state-of-the-arts center
is possible as
a result of a grant that was funded by the U.S. Department of Housing
and Urban
Development.
The goal of this grant
is
to help community residents bridge the digital divide, which will allow
them
broader exposure to internet
applications and
enhance educational and
employment skills. The NNC is located at 2305 D Street (directions), in the
Community Services
Building. Come
