The North Country Digital Inclusion Coalition, in partnership with Empire State Development’s ConnectALL Office, invites you and your organization to the North Country region INTERNET AND DIGITAL EQUITY LISTENING SESSION.
ConnectALL is an initiative from Governor Kathy Hochul to deliver affordable internet access to millions of New Yorkers, bolster digital equity and transform the state’s digital infrastructure. The North Country Digital Inclusion Coalition and ConnectALL teams are looking to gain input from those working to close the digital divide and improve the well- being of marginalized populations including:
- Local and county government leaders
- Regional planning and economic development organizations
- Internet service providers
- Educational institutions
- Workforce development organizations
- Non-profit organizations serving vulnerable New Yorkers
This event will include a discussion of existing barriers to internet access and the resources and opportunities we need to close the digital divide.
