Google Community Leaders Program: Provo
The Google Community Leaders Program is a partnership between Google and BYU's Ballard Center, designed to increase digital literacy in Provo.

In 2011, Jennifer Holland founded the Google Community Leaders Program (CLP) after she visited New Orleans and recognized that many businesses and nonprofits had a significant technological gap in their operations. Google CLP was founded to bridge the digital divide in New Orleans by connecting the community with local student talent. Now there are 9 chapters of CLP around the nation bridging the digital divide in their communities. This is a picture of the Detroit/Ann Arbor CLP team teaching a class. We are grateful for all the students, volunteers, and community partners that make CLP possible!
The Google Community Leaders Program will begin teaching classes Monday, October 5 and we need your help! We will be teaching basic computer skills and we need multiple volunteers to assist our students as they learn new technology. Volunteering to teach digital literacy classes doesn't require an extensive knowledge of computers, just a willingness to serve and teach basic skills. If you know how to use a mouse, write emails, and video chat friends, you have a better understanding than you realize! Check the class times at the following link, and come join us as we bridge the digital divide in Provo, UT!
