Greetings and welcome to Turning the TIDE’s website! Turning the TIDE is a community technology and resource center located in the Cobbs Creek area of Philadelphia. Since its inception in the year 2000, Turning the TIDE’s mission has been to empower community members (both youth and adults) through the delivery of technology-based services and educational programs. While the needs of our clients are wide-ranging, our goal remains the same – to equip Turning the TIDE visitors with the tools necessary to excel in their academic and/or workforce pursuits. If you haven’t already done so, we invite you to visit us during our weekly Open Access (computer center) hours. If you require more hands-on assistance, feel free to schedule a free one-on-one consult with a member of our staff. We are here to serve you!
Sincerely,
N’Jameh Samuels Ford,
Director of Development
