We provide an innovative and comprehensive computer education and recycling program to better prepare our students to reenter the workforce as capable and successful individuals.
We manage electronic waste, including discarded computers and monitors, laptops, televisions, printers and other consumer electronics.
We educate unemployed and underemployed in computer basics, hardware, software, recycling, refurbishing and repair. In addition, life skills and general employability training is provided along with substance abuse help if required.

The mission of the Urban Revitalization Council (URC) is to explore the best practices for redevelopment and revitalization of city centers, older neighborhoods and districts, and other core urban areas.This includes a focus on urban planning, infrastructure development, architecture, street and civic space design, real estate development, historic preservation and adaptive reuse, economic development, social equity and community engagement.
The objective is to provide members with skills, knowledge, case studies and ideas to help them actively demonstrate leadership in the revitalization of the communities in which they are living and practicing. Towards this end, the URC actively uses the venue for each Council meeting as a case study relating to our areas of focus, meeting with local professionals, visiting local projects and engaging with local community members whenever possible.
