TechCORE2 () started as a nonprofit program through a strategic partnership of JCW Computer Consulting, LLC (www.jcwcc.com) and Mercy-Douglass Corporation () in Winter 2015, and later became a separate entity TechCORE2 Nonprofit Corporation, an IRS 501(c)3 designated entity on May 11, 2018.

TechCORE2 has grown from (20) youth in 2015 to over (300) in 2019 before the Covid-19 Pandemic. TechCORE2 morphed into a virtual program during the pandemic and continued its summer H.S. PAID internship. In 2021, TechCORE2 began Hybrid programs, and in 2022 we returned to in person programs and delivered instruction to 257 youth.

Our current core programs are:
