Door Step School runs computer classes at select locations to help older children become computer literate and familiar with the most common programs and applications.

We teach programs including Word, Excel, PowerPoint and Paint. Additionally we provide resources and support to help older children train for jobs which require computer skills as well as assistance with writing job applications.
