Hearing about her friends using their computers made Jill want to learn too. She also has “lots of pictures” that she likes sharing with others. Already familiar with Neil Squire, she decided to enroll in Distance Computer Comfort.
“All the things that you all do so easily was a challenge for me, and that goes back to my disabilities. [Even a] little thing for me is three times harder than for everybody else. I didn’t know anything — nothing — but to check my emails and go on the web.”
“The Digital Jumpstart program provided me with an improved comfort level with the computer with help from a one-on-one instructor. I also received a laptop, an ergonomic mouse, a keyboard, as well as a headset. I am retired so I will not be searching for work, but this program helped me with my understanding of computers and technology.”
“I want to thank the staff and volunteers at Neil Squire for everything that they do. Without the support they’ve given me, I wouldn’t be where I am. Thanks for everything.”
Katherine, a Distance Computer Comfort participant, was happy to share with us a testimonial on her time in the program.
