Obtaining digital information, shopping online, participating democratically, completing job applications, applying for small business loans, utilizing telehealth or learning other skills all happen online. Our neighbors without access to the Internet and other technology experience major disadvantages that negatively affect quality of life.
Technology is the new dividing line that leaves our most disconnected neighborhoods behind, causing detrimental consequences.
"We all have the same dreams. We want our kids to be successful. We want to be healthy. And we want to have peace. Technology is a key piece to get there because it is about delivering solutions. We can catch dreams at the speed of need.”
