OLAnet Website, Database and Web Content Management at the Service of Latinos in Ohio
Columbus, OH - In an effort to gather and disseminate information, stimulate public awareness and enhance the Latino Community Network, The Ohio Commission on Hispanic/Latino Affairs - (OCHLA) is launching OLAnet, a web based technology tool that will enable everyone across the state to find, distribute, and communicate information of interest to Latino and varied audiences in each community.
Training sessions will be conducted across the state during the month of November, 2007. The workshops will include an overview presentation on OLAnet, and the OCHLA Community Alliance Network model. During this event, OCHLA will conduct a hands-on demonstration of the OLAnet technology, and participants will have the opportunity to register their respective organizations into the OLAnet database, post news and events relevant to each group's activities.
"OLAnet will bring together resources, information and knowledge from across the State. We believe this tool comes at a critical time for Latino and Latino serving organizations, to take advantage of technology to close the gap and open our communication channels across Ohio," expressed Ezra Escudero, OCHLA's Executive Director.
To facilitate the training, there will be two sessions available in each location. Organizations interested in attending, may contact Mrs. Cavanaugh (614) 466-8333 or email lilleana.cavanaugh@ohio.gov for further information.
