COVID-19 may have presented many challenges but it also offered opportunity -- opportunity to learn what IS possible.
What did we learn? We learned, that the young people who train and work here are resilient and adaptable. Working remotely on virtual platforms they continued to complete training and internships and are getting hired by companies around the region. And many are entrepreneurs, launching start up businesses.
What's changed? They are not going to work in corporate offices but are joining the ranks of remote workforces that will likely remain remote.
The next challenge? Providing professional spaces that might not be available at home.
The solution? The Burton and Mindy Cohen Foundation established the Burton R. Cohen Technology Center located down the hall from Hopeworks with support from David and Jane Hummel and other Hopeworks friends. This co-working space offers alumni memberships that include desk space, "phone booths" for client calls, conference room privileges, and high-speed internet all in a collaborative environment. Additionally, ongoing professional development opportunities and mentorship are provided.
Join us at noon on Thursday, April 1st for the virtual grand opening! Register here.

Think back to when driving became a universal skill. Before cars, mobility was limited. Once driving spread, it wasn’t optional—you needed a license to get to work, participate in community life, and unlock opportunity. Prompting is today’s equivalent. It’s the new license for the AI future. Whether you’re an educator planning lessons, a worker managing […]
Doctors don’t go into medicine to chase claims they go to heal. But rising administrative burdens are pulling clinicians away from patients and into endless billing codes, denial letters, and payer phone calls.
