Who We Are

The Linden Institute for AI Literacy is a nonprofit based in New Jersey, committed to making artificial intelligence understandable and accessible for educators, parents, and communities. We believe AI should not be a mystery reserved for experts—it should be a tool that empowers everyday people.

Our mission is simple but vital: to bridge the gap between technology and the people it affects most. By blending AI literacy with financial literacy, we help families and schools not only learn what AI is, but also understand how it impacts jobs, money, and the future of work.

Why It Matters

AI is reshaping education, careers, and family life at lightning speed. Yet many schools and communities—especially underserved ones—are unprepared to meet this challenge. Without proper guidance, entire generations risk being left behind in the digital age.

That’s where we step in. We equip teachers, parents, and students with the knowledge to use AI responsibly, ethically, and effectively—ensuring that every community has the chance to thrive in an AI-powered world.

What We Do

• Workshops for Educators & Parents: Hands-on training sessions that explain AI in plain, accessible language.
• Community Programs: Programs that connect AI literacy with financial literacy, showing how technology shapes opportunity, money, and the future of work.
• School & Community Partnerships: Collaborations with schools, PTAs, and community organizations to bring training directly where it’s needed most.
• Sponsorship & Support Opportunities: Partnerships with companies, foundations, and civic leaders to build future-ready communities.
