Bringing people together to end poverty for good
Our Mission
CCEDC, Inc. was formed to empower underprivileged youth living in affordable housing complexes and surrounding areas within the inner city of Los Angeles by providing free computer education, internet and printer access, and academic support. We are dedicated to increasing computer literacy and offering training opportunities in information technology to inner city youth ranging from 10 to 18 years of age. We believe that by equipping at-risk youth with valuable computer skills and training, we will empower them to compete in the global economy by increasing their opportunities in higher education and career advancement.
Our Vision
Through its unique vision of linking affordable housing and information technology, our program helps underprivileged youth enhance their scholastic achievement and prevents them from becoming involved in gang and other nonproductive activities that often occur in their neighborhoods during unsupervised periods. Our computer education centers offer inner city children a safe, supervised learning environment as an alternative. Our computer centers are open to enrolled students only, which adds additional security for our students.
