Josephine's Place is a storefront, drop-in space dedicated to women in Elizabeth. The center caters to an array of needs. Computer Essentials is a basic computer course designed to introduce women to technology.
Volunteers will help students with typing, web-surfing, and word processing. It's a fun, relaxed and engaging atmosphere which makes the program great! We request only female volunteers to help teach the women participating in the course.
Spanish speaking volunteers are preferred and greatly appreciated!
Volunteers are given a lesson plan that will guide the work with the women. The guide includes 12 lesson plans and each week a lesson is covered with the women. It is a great opportunity to have a blast while sharing your knowledge with eager and excited women!
