What It Takes
A TAA chapter runs our 12-week tech literacy program at a local library or school. Sessions are free, open to the community, and run once a week for about an hour. Here's what you need to get started:
A Small Team
At least 1 person, but 2–3 is recommended. You'll need a Chapter Lead and ideally a Co-Facilitator.
A Venue
A public library, school, or community center with a projector or TV screen. We can help you pitch it.
12-Week Commitment
One session per week, ~1 hour each. Plus about 30 min of prep and a quick recap email after each session.
