The Mattapan Technology Learning Center (MTLC) is a school for adults who want to learn computer skills, from programs as basic as e-mail and Microsoft Office to more complex ones, such as PC repair and computer restoration. Started three years ago by Haitian immigrant Jacques Jean and his wife Karrie, the MTLC has grown to host over 450 students and recently started an extension program in Jacques' hometown of Bizoton, Haiti.
