Community Technology Center Toolkit
In addition to doing academic research, our team wanted to use our
research knowledge to help local CTCs. This tool kit includes resources
for meeting needs that we were told about by many of the CTCs we worked
with. CTCs are often busy doing the day-to-day work of running an organization
- we as students had time to "pull back" and put some effort
into helping with broader concerns.
This resource guide includes helpful websites for CTC teachers, staff
dealing with funding concerns, and volunteer recruiters. We've also created
a guide to writing press releases and an address book of the local CTCs
we've worked with to encourage networking. And we highlight several Austin-area
organizations that can help nonprofits not just survive, but thrive.
