These classes can help equip participants with vital computer skills like senior residents who are able to pay their utility bills, accessing their bank account. Schedule their medical and transportation appointments. And How to use social media.\n\n3) Ethical and History Education Classes: These classes aim to educate the younger generation about cultural, ethnic and diversity, emphasizing the\nimportance of respecting and understanding their culture and history. This approach can help reduce the disconnect of origin and culture with the youth in today’s society.\n\n\n</div></dd><dt name=\"text-1695292616659-0\">Write the zipcode that best represents your New York City community:</dt><dd id=\"text-1695292616659-0\" name=\"text\">\n\n<div>11235\n\n</div></dd></dl></xml>"]
