Youngstown, Ohio — Oak Hill Collaborative, a Youngstown-based nonprofit, will celebrate the ninth annual Digital Inclusion Week, led by the National Digital Inclusion Alliance, by hosting 26 events across Mahoning, Trumbull, and Ashtabula counties.
Digital Inclusion Week, a national week of awareness, recognition and celebration, honors the efforts of communities and organizations who are dedicated to bridging America’s Digital Divide. OHC has been an affiliate of the NDIA since 2017.
This year’s theme, “Community-Driven Digital Futures,” perfectly aligns with OHC’s goals to empower, educate and ensure digital access is available to all Ohioans. Last year, OHC hosted 18 public and private workshops in Mahoning and Trumbull counties.
“Here at the Collaborative, we celebrate Digital Inclusion Week to recognize the need for increased opportunities to bridge the Digital Divide by highlighting the variety of classes and workshops we offer to the public across the Mahoning Valley,” said Patrick Kerrigan, Executive Director of OHC.
Twenty-two of this year’s events hosted by OHC are free and open to the public. OHC’s Main Branch in Youngstown will offer multiple different workshops each day during the week. Some of the topics include a 2025 Scam Report covering popular online scams, a Basics Bootcamp to help beginners get accustomed to laptops, and an Intro to Web Design and HTML.
OHC is also partnering with local agencies such as Goodwill, OCCHA, Thrive 10:10, Oak St. Health, YWCA, and Connect Your Community, to host computer workshops across the Mahoning Valley for Digital Inclusion Week.
Four additional workshops will be privately hosted at sites in partnership with Youngstown Metropolitan Housing Authority, Trumbull Metropolitan Housing Authority, and Ashtabula Metropolitan Housing Authority.
All public workshops and classes listed below are free to attend. OHC’s Main Branch is located at 507 Oak Hill Ave. Youngstown, OH.
