The Corporation for National and Community Service has highlighted PSLA's Digital Divide Initiative as a "promising program" in its biweekly National Service News bulletin. Featured is the technology programming at Student Service-Learning Centers, including Gratz High School, Quaker Valley High School, Solanco High School, University City High School and Turner Middle School.
 
The article explores successful components of the program, such as the computer refurbishing curriculum, computers in the homes, partnerships with institutions of higher education and online resources including a website, email bulletins and downloadable replication materials.

The bulletin is published every other Monday, and provides a plethora of resources for citizens in service through Senior Corps, Americorps and Learn and Serve America. Each addition features a Service Hero and a Promising Program, as well as resource tips and information "from the front."
