The SPSC Tech Hub on the second floor is the place to be! Starting with a grant from Comcast, the program has helped hundreds of people learn everything from how to use their smart phones to exploring the vast new world of virtual reality.

What The Hub Can Do For You
We’re ready to help anyone who wants to learn – smart phone texting and photography, video chatting via Zoom and Facetime, sending emails, browsing the web, identifying scams, employing safe passwords, digital resumes and job searching, and more.
Our Digital Navigators
Our team of digital navigators – Rosie, Deborah, Jimmy, Kimberly, and Sago – are all St. Pat members who have gone through our tech training themselves. They are assisted by nursing and medical students from Madonna University, Michigan State, Wayne State, and Arizona State.
Stop in and see them at the computer lab. No appointment is necessary
Our program is also available at other locations across the area: Kemeny, Patton, and Roberto Clemente Rec Centers in Detroit, the Ernest T. Ford Center in Highland Park, and a number of senior residences
