The OIC of Los Angeles (http://laoic.org/) has a program aimed at putting computers in the hands of low-income individuals & families for a low cost. The computer in question is a core 2 duo desktop with flat screen monitor and the low cost in question is $149 plus tax. Participants must provide proof of low-income status. Such proof includes documentation showing earnings less than $23,000 a year or receipt of Medicaid, SSI, TANF, GA-U, DSHS support, or free school lunches.
The program begins with a 3 hour boot camp. We are offering those boot camps here at the Arroyo Seco Library on the first Friday of each month from 1:00-4:00. Months alternate between classes in English and Spanish. The November class will be in Spanish. Call us at 323-255-0537, or stop by, to sign up.
If you have questions about the program please call OIC at 323-754-3116.
