Plugged In Enterprises, Continued


A Model Community Center

With web design a growing field, and web design contracts continually coming in, Lacey expects Plugged In Enterprises to continue doing well. Just as the Plugged In community center has served as a model for other community centers around the country, Plugged In Enterprises may also serve as a model for high-tech businesses staffed by low-income kids elsewhere in the U.S.

This year, some of the older kids will be "graduating" from PIE and attending college. Perhaps when they join the working world four years from now, they'll be working at the other end of University Avenue. Or perhaps some of the people on the other end of University Avenue will be working for businesses based in East Palo Alto.
