Digital equity means all people in Durham have access to technology, connectivity, and digital skills training. We are joining more than 600 organizations this week who are working toward Digital Inclusion with @netinclusion! digitalinclusion.org/diw21 #DIW2021

We are so proud to be BAND NC grant recipients! We are an all volunteer organization and the grant made it possible for us create a digital equity plan for Durham. digitaldurham.net/digital-equity… Now we're applying for funds to begin implementation.

The racial disparities are apparent in Durham’s statistics on connectivity with Black and Hispanic residents significantly more likely to be disconnected. We see the #digitaldivide as an equity issue.

Internet IS infrastructure! So glad to have a Governor who gets it. "High speed internet is vital for education and telemedicine but also for every person, from small business owner and farmer to big corporation and hospital.” - @NC_Governor #digitalequity

Families in every corner of the country have been struggling to get online throughout this pandemic. I’m proud of the work we’ve done as an agency to get the Emergency Broadband Benefit Program off the ground in record time. #DigitalDivide

Very important insights on the #digitaldivide, including this: "Yet it [cell phone only] has severe limits as a means to do homework, apply for government benefits, or connect with a medical professional."
Benton Institute for Broadband & Society@Benton_Inst

New insights from @JohnBHorrigan to help states look at the data as they address the #digitaldivide. "Having data on the nature of the gaps should help them as they formulate policies to get more people online." benton.org/blog/states-lo…
