Our Computer Clubhouse opened its doors Monday, August 24, 2009 to school children ages 8-16.  

Based in the Waco Housing Authority's Computer Labs, Clubhouse meets three days a week from 4-6 p.m. and focuses on educational and technological skills development.

Children in the program work on computer-based activities as well as getting help with their homework and strengthening their basic computer skills.  Throughout the year, the children will also go on field trips to several Waco attractions and sites.

Computer Clubhouse is provided in conjunction with Waco Housing Authority and funded by a generous grant from the Rapoport Foundation.

Waco TECH's  Senior Café program meets every Wednesday from 9 a.m. - 11 a.m.  Senior Café is an opportunity for local seniors to learn about computers (from the very basic to the more advanced) from our dedicated staff.  Our seniors love the program because, as one of our regular visitors says, she “enjoys the companionship of Sr. Café, the patience of the instructors and all of the new things there are to learn!"

Our New Horizons program (funded by the Waco Foundation) allows adults to expand their horizons, whether they want to learn new office skills for a job or make their family pictures into a slide show for a family reunion.  New Horizons focuses on life-long learners and provides them an opportunity to continue to develop new skills and broaden their horizons.
