Technology Center

Our vision of creating an inviting, state-of-the-art Technology Center became a reality thanks to the generous contributions of funds, labor, materials, and services from our supporters. The groundbreaking ceremony took place on a rainy day in October 2008—a sign of good luck, as it turned out. Construction progressed quickly, and by May 2009, the Center officially opened its doors.

On August 25, 2009, we celebrated the official inauguration with a ribbon-cutting ceremony attended by a diverse group of local, county, and state leaders, educators, community partners, Board members, staff, and El Centro Hispano clients.

Since its launch in 2009 at our previous location, the Technology Center has played a vital role in El Centro’s programming, operating five days a week and serving as a hub for learning and connection. After relocating to our new permanent home, the Center resumed technology classes in September 2023. Now open six days a week, it offers both adults and children access to twenty-five computer stations, a dedicated teacher’s workstation, new TV screens, and high-speed internet.​
