Trinfo.Café

Established in October 2000, Trinfo.Café is a neighborhood technology center that serves the technology needs of Hartford residents and organizations.  Trinfo.Café provides a friendly location and space in the neighborhood where local residents, community-based organizations, churches, and merchants can work together on technology-related issues and make better use of information technology. At Trinfo.Café you will have access to tech-based program development, training, and technical support services.  Through the last few years, Trinfo.Café has developed a strong network of contacts in the Hartford community. Trinfo has offered basic computer literacy training, professional development workshops, a computer recycling and donation program, after-school programs for youth, and off-site programming for community organizations that lack the capacity to offer technology programming themselves.

Having become a new unit in the Center for Urban and Global Studies (CUGS) at Trinity College, Trinfo.Café will work more closely and directly with the offices of community relations, learning, and services to play a stronger role in developing the technical expertise and competencies of Hartford residents, while building the capacities of community-based organizations to better utilize technology to better serve their members and clients.  All this is accomplished with the dedication and enthusiasm of Trinity students whose role as program developers, instructors, and ambassadors builds strong connections between the College and the city of Hartford and extends and strengthens these connections to the global community through technology.
