Congresswoman Maxine Waters Visits Jordan Downs
   
April 8, 2010 – U.S. Congresswoman Maxine Waters visited Jordan Downs to meet with residents and other community leaders. The Congresswoman was also joined by HACLA’s President and CEO Rudolf C. Montiel,  representatives from AT&T, One Economy and Opportunities Industrialized Center (OIC) of Los Angeles to get an update on the Bringing Technology Home — A Computer Education Initiative.  The project includes computer literacy  training for residents.  Participants who successful complete the program receive a donated refurbished computer. HACLA staff also updated Congresswoman Waters on the Jordan Downs Wi-Fi program. Congresswoman Waters talked to the residents who were participating in the computer training course at the community center and received their feedback about the class.   JD resident Guadalupe Laureano was excited to have the Congresswoman visit her home  while a donated computer was being set up in her residence.  The Congresswoman also got a chance to preview the Jordan Downs website (www.jordandowns.org).
