"The
FCNY is a very different type of organization," boasts Wyatt, "It is
involved with both the government and the community." Rev. Wyatt works
primarily with youth and youth based organizations providing leadership
for the FCNY's Youth Development Institute and Community Youth Employment
Programs. "I'm a leader and I think I have brought leadership to the
organization." One of the many problems that FCNY faces is the growing
Digital Divide. " We use technology to address social issues," says
Wyatt, " We look at who has access and who does not."
