Northwest Center Engages Community, Advances Digital Skills

Since 2003, the Northwest Center has been working to empower the Chicago neighborhood that the nonprofit calls home, Belmont Cragin, through an expansive array of community-centered programs. Northwest Center’s mission to “identify and respond to the needs of the community” in order to “improve the economic well-being and quality of life” for all community members is deeply reflected in its ongoing initiatives, including financial literacy, health equity, housing counseling, and digital skills classes. Digital navigation officially became a part of Northwest Center’s programming in 2020. In the four years since Northwest Center began offering its digital skills courses, the organization has continued to adjust its curricula and course offerings based on the feedback and evolving needs of the community.
