CyberFamilies is a new program under development at this agency since October 2003. It is envisioned to be a replica of a very successful program developed by Judge William Byers, a former Juvenile Court Judge in South Carolina, and current Director of the Family Law Center at the University of South Carolina, pioneered the program, Computer Buddies, that places refurbished, donated Internet-accessible PCs in foster homes throughout South Carolina.

Building the Program:

• Communicating the vision

• Forming the steering committee

• Securing seed money

• Initial development of the evaluation design

• Securing commitments for refurbishing donated PCs

• Developing sources for donated PCs

• Recruiting and training Computer Coaches
