Founded in 2000, the Neighborhood Technology Resource Center (NTRC) has two locations in Chicago's North Lawndale and West Town communities. At NTRC North Lawndale, we have twenty-five computer workstations with T1 Internet access. Located in the Northwest Tower Apartments, NTRC West Town has twelve computer workstations connected to the Internet through a Digital Subscriber Line (DSL). Working with the local community, the NTRC's mission is to position digital technologies as tool for individual, organizational and community development. The NTRC accomplishes this mission by creating and supporting programs that are practical and relevant to individuals and organizations and contribute to their economic self-sufficiency. Our long-term vision is that local citizens, community organizations, churches and businesses will have access to and the necessary knowledge of information technologies and its benefits.
