About Us

Welcome to the home of ChesTech Community Computer Labs. The ChesTech labs are part of the Neighborhood Networks Project of the Chester Housing Authority. The goal of the labs is to increase community access to and knowledge of computers and the skills necessary to succeed.
The Drop-In Center is an after-school program for students ages 13 and up to learn basic computing skills in a fun and interactive way. For more about the Drop-In Center and to see a list of lessons, please click here.

The TechTeam works with the members of the community to build and maintain the computers and software at each of the three lab sites. For more information about the TechTeam, please visit their page by clicking here.
