Grand Rapids Business Journal recently spotlighted Western Michigan Center for Arts and Technology (WMCAT) for their participation and contributions to create the Reclaiming Digital Futures report and toolkit. The article focuses on WMCAT’s specific depth of knowledge and resources. As a partner based in a less populated area than those in major cities, WMCAT shared tools and strategies that are working to fit the needs of the types of communities that too often get overlooked in conversations about digital learning programs for youth. Reclaiming Digital Futures offers a range of adoptable and adaptable resource, but makes plain that each partner program is successful because they tap into the needs and interest of their own communities, offering tailored support and engagement.
