MORE ON DIGITAL EQUITY As defined by the National Digital Inclusion Alliance (NDIA), "digital equity is a condition in which all individuals and communities have the information technology capacity needed for full participation in our society, democracy, and economy. Digital equity is necessary for civic and cultural participation, employment, lifelong learning, and access to essential services. It is important to note here the use of “equity” vs. “equality.” When we use the word equity, we accurately acknowledge the systemic barriers that must be dismantled before achieving equality for all."

  • Strategic Planning 2020 | Tech Goes Home

    Strategic Plan 2020 Mission Tech Goes Home empowers communities to access and use digital tools to overcome barriers and advance lives. Why TGH? Digital exclusion perpetuates poverty. Without the tools, access, and skills to do homework, navigate online job portals, manage finances, communicate with loved ones, and so much more, it has become incredibly difficult to succeed. And considering the stark demographic inequities in the use of technology, digital inclusion has become a social justice issue of our time. 80% of Fortune 500 companies require online job applications, including major employers such as Walmart and CVS (FCC) 84% of the nation’s K-12 teachers report that digital inequities are growing in their classrooms (Pew Research Center, 2017) 44% of adults with household incomes below $30,000 a year don’t have home broadband services and 46% don’t have a computer (Pew Research Center, 2019) Only 46% of seniors with household incomes below $30,000 say they go online (Pew Research Center 2017) Supporting people to get online and use digital health resources can be crucial to achieving local priorities including: physical and mental wellbeing, prevention, self care, shared care and shared decision making, long term condition management, appropriate use of urgent and emergency care (NHS 2019) TGH addresses these inequities by providing free digital skills training, discounted new computers, and help securing home Internet access. We serve people from the ages of 3 to 93, prioritizing those without technology, the un/underemployed, immigrants, and people with disabilities. TGH is focused on tackling the entrenched barriers to technology adoption and Internet access. Our school, community, small business, and early childhood initiatives provide an impactful and cost-effective model to help families and participants gain the skills, hardware, and Internet access needed for lifelong success. History Founded in 2000, Tech Goes Home (TGH) is an award-winning 501(c)(3) nonprofit that empowers communities to access and use digital tools to overcome barriers and advance lives. Simply put, TGH helps bring computers, Internet, and training to those without so students can do homework, adults can find jobs and manage finances, and seniors can connect with loved ones. With the help of 350+ partner schools and community sites, TGH has served 35,000+ people in over 2,400 courses and distributed 22,500+ new computers over its tenure. In the past four years, TGH has experienced massive growth, from serving 3,000 people in 2016 to 5,500 in 2019. In 2019 alone, TGH ran 396 courses at nearly 200 community partner sites throughout Greater Boston. 75% of TGH learners had household incomes under $35,000 per year. Nearly half of adult learners were immigrants and 85% were people of color. Program Model The TGH model tackles digital exclusion by providing 15 hours of skills training, a new computer to course graduates for $50, and help finding and securing low-cost, high-quality Internet. Each course is uniquely offered by community leaders, trained by TGH, who come from the communities they serve--as early education or school teachers, community case workers or workforce development coaches, and many other grassroots roles. TGH serves people of all ages: TGH School serves school-age students and their caregivers, TGH Early Childhood serves children 3-6 and their caregivers, TGH Community serves adults and seniors, and TGH Small Business serves micro-entrepreneurs. Board and Staff The TGH Board consists of 13 supporters (38% women, 31% POC) who bring a balanced perspective to leadership decisions. TGH has 8 full-time staff members (72% women, 43% POC) including co-CEOs, four program staff, one operations/finance staff member, and one fundraising staff member. Read our staff bios here . More Information Annual Report Impact Report List of program partners Financials FAQ's Why don’t you use phones instead of computers? While smartphones are often cited as a ubiquitous tool that could be the solution, a research paper or job application written on a smartphone pales in comparison to one written on a computer. Poor quality access engenders a lower quality product, leading to an ever-widening opportunity gap. Why don’t you use refurbished computers? Providing each learner with the same model of computers makes distribution efficient & affordable and allows us to teach the operating system of our choice across all of our programs. We also respect our learners and want to ensure they graduate with a quality laptop. Why don’t TGH staff conduct the 15 hours? The train-the-trainer model allows us to enlist more than 300 culturally and racially diverse instructors who currently and directly work with the people we serve. This diverse, equitable, and inclusive approach allows us to scale our impact many fold. Why not do an online course? Many of our learners don’t know how to get online, never mind take an online course. That itself is a digital literacy lesson on its own. A small classroom setting allows learners to gain hands-on experience, form peer-to-peer learning relationships, and build a connection with their local schools or community organizations. Doesn’t all your funding come from the City of Boston? We get foundational support from CoB but the demand is far greater than the funding can cover. We continue to grow and diversify funding in order to increase reach and sustainability. Why do you charge $50 for devices? We view the $50 as an investment from our learners. They are investing in their own learning and success in the program. We’ve found that the copay for devices has helped tremendously with our program completion (90% of learners who enroll graduate from TGH). Are you only in Boston schools? No. In addition to schools in Boston, we’re currently serving schools in Cambridge, Chelsea, and Revere. And of course we partner with more than 100 community groups, social service agencies, libraries, municipal agencies, and others. Are you funded by or a part of Boston Public Schools? No on both counts. Although we serve many Boston Public Schools, we are not a part of BPS nor do we receive any funding from Boston Public Schools. Is there a basic TGH curriculum I can look at? Yes. Check out our TGH School and Community curriculum here . How are the four programs the same/different? Check out our program overview here.

  • Tech Goes Home | Becoming a TGH Site

    Tech Goes Home is fighting for digital equity. We help bring computers, Internet, and training to those without so students can do homework, adults can find jobs, and seniors can connect with loved ones. PAID PARTNERSHIPS Tech Goes Home offers two partnership tracks: our traditional TGH-Funded model and our Fee-for-Service model. In our traditional model, the full cost of the program is covered by Tech Goes Home. To learn more about the process of becoming a TGH-Funded partner, click here . Under our Fee-for-Service model, the partner site covers costs associated with offering the TGH program at their site. A paid partnership may be right for your organization if: You are interested in offering the Tech Goes Home program to a large number of learners, above and beyond the average of 40-60 learners who graduate from each TGH-Funded partner site per year. You are looking to get the partnership process started right away, rather than joining the TGH-Funded partnership waitlist. PARTNERSHIP OVERVIEW Tech Goes Home partners with other agencies (schools, nonprofits, libraries, and others) that work with people who need access to technology. Our program is a 15-hour digital skills course that can be conducted virtually or in-person. Learners who complete the course earn a Chromebook and one year of paid internet access. Partner sites choose one or two of their employees to run the TGH course at their site. After being certified as TGH Instructors, the partner site's employees then run the TGH course at their site. Our curriculum is customizable so that instructors teach the digital skills, apps, and websites they think are most useful for their specific learners. What TGH offers: Course model Training for individuals from the partner site who will run the digital literacy classes Instructor resources Support to instructors throughout the course via class visits, meetings, and emails Marketing materials for recruiting learners One new device (iPad or Chromebook) per participating household (learner or caregiver/child pair) One year of internet service per household, if the learner does not already have affordable, high-quality internet access at home Shipping and delivery of technology bundles to the partner site (if in-person) or learners' homes (if distance learning) What the partner offers: A fixed cost-per-household that covers the costs of TGH programming at your site Staff member(s) to serve as instructors Recruitment and enrollment of learners for the courses at your site STEPS TO BECOMING PAID PARTNER OF TGH 1. Fill out the Partnership Inquiry Form Please complete this New Partnership Inquiry form to send TGH your details. We will review your information and reach out to you via email with more information. 2. Meet with our team This meeting (either by phone or video) will be an opportunity for TGH to learn more about your organization, for you to learn more about TGH, and for us to discuss what a potential partnership might look like. We will cover programmatic components of the partnership as well as costs. Initial meetings must include the head of your school or organization (Executive Director, Site Director, and/or Head of School). 3. Complete a Partnership Application and MOU Once we’ve mutually agreed to move forward with the partnership, TGH will email you an application to become a new partner site. This application must be completed by the head of your school or organization (Executive Director, Site Director, and/or Head of School). We will also send an MOU outlining the terms of our partnership, which will need to be signed by the head of your site. 4. Identify one employee to serve as the TGH Program Supervisor at your site. The TGH Program Supervisor must be an employee of your site. This person will serve as TGH's main contact and responsible for: Keeping TGH up-to-date on staff changes related to instructors and site leadership Supervising the TGH program, instructors, assistants, and volunteers at your site. Answering inquiries and questions about the TGH program at your site that may be asked by TGH instructors at your site or individuals interested in becoming instructors at your site. TGH will ask the Program Supervisor to step in if TGH has issues with communication, logistics, or compliance with any instructors, assistants, or volunteers from your site. The TGH Program Supervisor will be asked to attend a 1-hour orientation to learn about the TGH program, its role, and the responsibilities and logistics that TGH requires of the site, instructors, assistants, and volunteers. 5. Identify employees who will apply to be the TGH Instructors at your site. If you’ve received a partnership confirmation from Tech Goes Home, please identify at least one staff member from your organization who can run the 15-hour Tech Goes Home course. We recommend two instructors per TGH course. These instructors need not be computer experts but should be comfortable using the internet, particularly tools such as email, Google search, Google Apps, and other basics. TGH Instructors help learners sign up for low-cost Internet and handle administrative duties related to the course, including tracking attendance and collecting learner forms. Most importantly, they should be welcoming, patient, and passionate about helping people learn life-changing skills! 6. Certify your TGH Instructors Once your site partnership is official, you will receive instructions to share with your staff about an instructor application. They must complete a four-step process to be certified as a Tech Goes Home Instructor. Complete an online instructor application Pass a short “Internet Basics” assessment with a score of 85% or higher Attend a 4-hour Instructor Orientation with our team. Complete a background CORI check. 7. Apply to start a course Certified instructors at official partner sites can submit a course application for each cohort they would like to teach.
