- Social & Racial Justice | Tech Goes Home
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, seniors can connect with loved ones, and all can lead healthy lives. Digital Inclusion, Social Justice & Racial Equity Digital inequities pose a significant barrier to opportunity and success for millions of students, families, and adults across the country, and has a disproportionate impact on communities of color. Digital exclusion is not a stand-alone issue, but part and parcel of the many inequities that exist in our society today as a result of generations of systematic racism and social injustice. Tech Goes Home is committed to advancing digital equity by providing digital inclusion programs that open up access to and empower participation in education, healthcare, economic opportunities, and civic engagement. Through our three-pillar program model based on computers, internet connectivity, and training, as well as our advocacy work , Tech Goes Home works to create a more equitable society where all members of our community have access to the digital world and the opportunities it provides. Academic Achievement Digital skills and access to internet-connected computers are essential for students to participate in distance learning and access critical support services. Yet, an estimated 16.9 million children across the U.S. lack access to high-speed home internet and 7.3 million children lack access to a home computer. Due to historic and ongoing social injustice and structural racism, students from low-income families and students of color are disproportionately affected by this divide. At a time when access to virtual learning is more important than ever, Tech Goes Home equips students and their families with the essential digital resources and training that remove barriers to pursuing academic achievement. Economic Opportunity Further, digital inclusion is closely linked with economic opportunity. Applying for, advancing in, and accessing higher-paying jobs increasingly requires a range of digital skill sets . In Massachusetts, nearly 80% of jobs require at least fundamental digital skills , and middle-skill jobs requiring digital skills are growing 2.5 times faster than those that don’t. Yet, nearly one third of workers across all industries lack digital skills, with workers of color "overrepresented among those with limited or no digital skills. " Economic justice is critical to achieving racial and social justice, and Tech Goes Home’s programs prepare adults to leverage the internet to pursue career opportunities that require digital skills. Health Access Digital inclusion also means greater access to healthcare information and telemedicine, especially now that many appointments with medical professionals and vaccine sign-ups are occurring remotely. However, many individuals – including a disproportionate number of older adults – don’t have access to those resources due to a lack of internet connectivity, computer, and/or digital skills. Nationwide, 41% of people covered by Medicare cannot access telehealth from home. The pandemic has again laid bare the social determinants of health that have led to increased rates of COVID-19 infection in communities of color across the Commonwealth, and Tech Goes Home is working to mitigate those determinants by increasing access to essential health resources. Civic Engagement With the 2020 census conducted largely online, digital access was critical to counting every member of our communities in order to secure equitable funding for schools, housing, and other vital community resources. Many of the populations that have been deemed “hard-to-count” by the U.S. Census Bureau are members of historically marginalized communities that disproportionately face digital exclusion, including immigrant families, residents of dense urban areas, individuals experiencing homelessness, and individuals with disabilities. Voter registration, town hall participation, and other key civic engagement opportunities are also more accessible to those with digital access. Tech Goes Home works to empower learners with the digital tools and training to engage in their communities and make their voices heard. Our Solution: Training, Tools, & Access In partnership with our network of partner organizations across Eastern Massachusetts, Tech Goes Home empowers the community members we serve to use the internet as a tool for pursuing educational opportunities, finding jobs, accessing healthcare, fulfilling their essential needs from home, and making their voices heard. We welcome you to join us in achieving our goal of ensuring that everyone has the skills, tools, and access to take full advantage of the internet and the opportunities it offers.

- Supporting Research | Tech Goes Home
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. Digital Equity Research Tech Goes Home has gathered extensive research to support and inform our work. Take a look below and get a glimpse of why we do what we do. The Digital Divide and Economic Benefits of Broadband Access by The Council of Economic Advisors "Just under half of households in the bottom income quintile using the Internet at home, compared to 95 percent of households in the top quintile." "Academic research shows that using online job search leads to better labor market outcomes, including faster re-employment for unemployed individuals, yet because of a digital divide, low- income households are less able to use these tools than high-income households." "Addressing the digital divide requires effort on multiple fronts, including policies that make broadband more affordable." "When Google Fiber was to be rolled out in Kansas City, speeds on existing networks in Kansas surged 86 percent." "Effective digital literacy training may require place-based or demographically tailored interventions." Digital Divide Persists Even as Lower-Income Americans Make Gains in Tech Adoption by Pew Research Among adults with household incomes below $30,000 a year: 44% don’t have home broadband services 46% don’t have a computer “By comparison, each of these technologies is nearly ubiquitous among adults in households earning $100,000 or more a year.” “As of early 2019, 26% of adults living in households earning less than $30,000 a year are “smartphone-dependent” internet users – meaning they own a smartphone but do not have broadband internet at home. This represents a substantial increase from 12% in 2013. In contrast, only 5% of those living in households earning $100,000 or more fall into this category in 2019.” “In 2015, 35% of lower-income households with school-age children did not have a broadband internet connection at home” ? FACT SHEET: 2016 BROADBAND PROGRESS REPORT from the FCC "One-third of all Americans – 100 million people – haven’t adopted broadband at home. Broadband adoption is key to America’s competitiveness – to jobs, e-government, education, and energy. Compare that to South Korea and Singapore where adoption rates top 90 percent." "Internationally, the U.S. continues to lag behind a number of other developed nations, ranking 16th out of 34 countries" Mobile Technology and Home Broadband 2019 by Pew Research “92% of adults from households earning $75,000 or more a year say they have broadband internet at home, but that share falls to 56% among those whose annual household income falls below $30,000.” “Half of non-broadband users today say they do not subscribe to broadband because the cost of a monthly subscription is too expensive, while 31% say the cost of a computer is too expensive.” Closing the K–12 Digital Divide in the Age of Distance Learning by Common Sense Media & Boston Consulting Group "Approximately 15 million to 16 million K-12 public school students, or 30% of all public K-12 students , live in households either without an internet connection or device adequate for distance learning at home, a higher number than previously recorded; and of these students, approximately nine million students live in households with neither an adequate connection nor an adequate device for distance learning." "300,000 to 400,000 K-12 teachers live in households without adequate internet connectivity, roughly 10 percent of all public school teachers, and 100,000 teachers lack adequate home computing devices." Limiting Broadband Investment to ‘Rural Only’ Discriminates Against Black Americans and other Communities of Color by National Digital Inclusion Alliance “All of the nation’s counties whose populations are at least 75% rural [those most likely to qualify for federal broadband subsidies], taken together, accounted for less than 8% of Americans living in households with no broadband. In contrast, the most urban counties - those with fewer than 5% rural residents - accounted for more than 35%.” "76% of residents living without broadband connection in the most rural third of U.S. counties were white and non-Hispanic. [...] In contrast, substantial majorities of the residents in households without broadband in our urban datasets were people of color. People of color accounted for 75% of the unconnected in cities with 200,000+ residents. Black residents alone accounted for 28% of the unconnected in 95%+ urban counties." "A federal broadband policy which provides funding only for broadband infrastructure deployment, and only to areas which have no existing 25/3 Mbps residential broadband service - with no accompanying investment in affordable access and other measures to help urban as well as rural residents get connected - discriminates in a big way against Black Americans and other communities of color.” “All of the nation’s counties whose populations are at least 75% rural [those most likely to qualify for federal broadband subsidies], taken together, accounted for less than 8% of Americans living in households with no broadband. In contrast, the most urban counties - those with fewer than 5% rural residents - accounted for more than 35%.” "76% of residents living without broadband connection in the most rural third of U.S. counties were white and non-Hispanic. [...] In contrast, substantial majorities of the residents in households without broadband in our urban datasets were people of color. People of color accounted for 75% of the unconnected in cities with 200,000+ residents. Black residents alone accounted for 28% of the unconnected in 95%+ urban counties." "A federal broadband policy which provides funding only for broadband infrastructure deployment, and only to areas which have no existing 25/3 Mbps residential broadband service - with no accompanying investment in affordable access and other measures to help urban as well as rural residents get connected - discriminates in a big way against Black Americans and other communities of color.” OPPORTUNITY FOR ALL? TECHNOLOGY AND LEARNING IN LOWER-INCOME FAMILIES from The Joan Ganz Cooney Ce nter "Most low- and moderate-income families have some form of Internet connection, but many are under-connected, with mobile-only access and inconsistent connectivity." "One third (33%) of those below the poverty level rely on mobile-only Internet access." "Among families who have home Internet access, half (52%) say their access is too slow, one quarter (26%) say too many people share the same computer, and one fifth (20%) say their Internet has been cut off in the last year due to lack of payment." "Parents with mobile-only access are [...] 25 percentage points less likely to use online banking or bill-paying (49% vs. 74%), 14 percentage points less likely to apply for jobs or services online (42% vs. 56%), and 12 percentage points less likely to get news or follow local events online (70% vs. 82%)." "Four in 10 parents without a home computer (40%) or home Internet access (42%) say the main reason they do not have these items is because they are too expensive." "Children from low- and moderate-income families use computers and the Internet for a variety of educational activities, but those without home access are less likely to go online to pursue their interest. [...] 35% of those with mobile only access say they 'often' do this, compared to 52% of those with home access." "Children and parents frequently learn with, and about, technology together, especially in families with the lowest incomes and where parents have less education." "Among parents who did not graduate from high school, 62% say their child has helped them with technology, compared with 45% of parents who graduated from college." "Among families with more than one 6- to 13-year-old and a computer in the home, [...] more than half (53%) of children from the lowest income group (less than $25,000 a year) 'often' help each other learn about computers and technology, compared to 33% of those in the higher-income group ($45,000–65,000 a year)." 10% of Americans Don't use the internet. Who are they? by Pew Research 3 in 10 adults with "less than a high school education" do not use the internet. "Adults from households earning less than $30,000 a year are far more likely than the most affluent adults to not use the internet (18% vs. 2%)." "Seniors are much more likely than younger adults to say they never go online [...] 27% still do not use the internet, compared with fewer than 10% of adults under the age of 65." WHAT IT'S LIKE TO GO ON THE INTERNET FOR THE VERY FIRST TIME - AT AGE 82. by the Washington Post "Seniors who log on tend to be far more educated about their health ; they’re far less isolated and more independent ." "One study out of the University of Michigan suggested that Internet use could cut depression risk among seniors by more than 30 percent — a huge finding, given the wide-ranging effects that depression and isolation have on senior’s health." Millions of U.S. Workers Have "Limited or No Digital Skills" by HR Dive “More than 1 in 10 workers are employed in manufacturing, and one third lack key digital skills." This equals about 5.6 million workers in manufacturing who have low digital skills. “Approximately 1 in 7 American workers is employed in the health and social assistance sector, and one-third lack key digital skills.” This equals about 6.7 million workers in this sector with low digital skills. “Nearly one-third of workers with limited digital skills are younger than 35.” The Digital Edge: Middle-Skill Workers and Careers by Burning Glass Technologies “More than 8 in 10 middle-skill jobs (82%) require digital skills” “Digitally intensive middle-skill jobs pay more than non-digital middle-skill jobs: Baseline digital skills alone pay a 17% premium over non-digital roles.” “Eight in 10 (78%) of middle-skill jobs demand facility with productivity software, and these digital jobs pay a premium over non-digital middle-skill roles. Additionally, productivity software is necessary for upward movement.” Digital Skills & Employment Foundational Skills for Career Progress by Urban Institute “Between 2002 and 2016, the share of all jobs with high digital content more than quadrupled, from 4.8 to 23.0 percent. This reflects both an increase in the digital nature of existing jobs and the addition of new digital jobs.” “Research suggests the demand for jobs requiring digital skills will increase [...] employers will increasingly desire workers with foundational digital skills as the digitization of jobs and tasks increases.” “Many occupations that were previously technology-free, such as janitorial work, now require technology for such basic tasks as checking room assignments and filling out time cards.” “[...] ‘the increased use of electronic job applications makes it difficult for those with low literacy skills to get a job’ [...] Online tools are now the most important resource for many job seekers” Strategies for teaching foundational digital skills: Teach skills in context In-person teaching Match training to people’s needs Access to digital tools Digital Inclusion & Education Nearly one-in-five teens can’t always finish their homework because of the digital divide by Pew Research “Some 15% of U.S. households with school-age children do not have a high-speed internet connection at home” “Roughly one-third of households with children ages 6 to 17 and whose annual income falls below $30,000 a year do not have a high-speed internet connection at home, compared with just 6% of such households earning $75,000 or more a year. These broadband disparities are particularly pronounced for black and Hispanic households with school-age children – especially those with low household incomes.” “17% of teens say they are often or sometimes unable to complete homework assignments because they do not have reliable access to a computer or internet connection.” “24% of teens whose annual family income is less than $30,000 say the lack of a dependable computer or internet connection often or sometimes prohibits them from finishing their homework, but that share drops to 9% among teens who live in households earning $75,000 or more a year.” Advancing Digital Equity and Closing the Homework Gap: The Need to Connect Students at Home by The Consortium for School Networking & Alliance for Excellent Education “Today, roughly seven in ten teachers assign homework that requires access to broadband. But the FCC’s data suggest that almost one in three households do not subscribe to broadband services at any speed.” Parental Involvement in Schools by Child Trends "Students with parents who are involved in their school tend to have fewer behavioral problems and better academic performance, and are more likely to complete high school than students whose parents are not involved in their school." The Numbers Behind the Broadband "Homework Gap" by Pew Research "31.4% of households whose incomes fall below $50,000 and with children ages 6 to 17 do not have a high-speed internet connection at home. [...] By comparison, only 8.4% of households with annual incomes over $50,000 lack a broadband internet connection at home. In other words, low-income homes with children are four times more likely to be without broadband than their middle or upper-income counterparts."

- Advocacy | Tech Goes Home
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. ADVOCACY For decades, the digital divide has excluded thousands from accessing critical tools and resources essential to their livelihoods, disproportionately affecting low-income communities, communities of color, and seniors. Advancing sustainable digital equity also means tackling some of the injustices that perpetuate digital exclusion, including systemic racism and economic inequality, as well as educational and health disparities. In the long term, achieving digital equity will lead to greater racial and economic justice. Addressing the root cause of the digital divide will require intentional investment and systemic policy changes. Directing more funds and resources to expand effective, community-centered digital equity efforts will be a good start. That’s why TGH advocates with local, state, and federal agencies and elected leaders for transformational, people-centered solutions that will help increase resources and ensure equitable access to digital tools and opportunities. Below, you can find more information about our latest advocacy work: Features Marvin on Java with Jimmy Tech Goes Home's Chief Advocacy Officer, Marvin L.

Program Overview Our Story, Our Purpose Tech Goes Home is focused on tackling the entrenched barriers to technology adoption and internet access in Boston and across the United States. While it is easy to assume that mobile and home-based computer access to the internet has become universal, the stubborn fact remains that 20% of households in the City of Boston lack a desktop or laptop computer, and 16% do not have home internet access (ACS 2015-2019). One year after completing TGH, 96% of our graduates have home internet.

Apps provided by TGH Decide on how many TGH picked apps you will go over during a session Which types of apps and in what combination? How much time will you spend on demonstrating? How will you determine how much time will be parents only and parent/child time? How can you keep children busy with a hands-on project while you are working with the adult? It's key for adults to feel confident with the apps so that they know best how to guide the child. 2. Other apps you think are useful. It’s also ok to introduce families to other apps that you think are helpful for the child’s development and learning. Feel free to share your feedback with us about the provided apps, and suggestions for apps to add to the collection. You can include this feedback in your Post-Course-Survey! 3. Introduce topics that help adults support their child’s development and learning The 3 I's Model: Introduce, Interact, Integrate Healthy screen time use Mixing tech with hands-on projects (for example, looking up dinosaurs and then creating a drawing or a sculpture of a dinosaur) Other ways that they can support the child’s learning 4. Content for Adults If you feel you’ve covered enough apps and parent resources, consider integrating some content solely for the adult Do the adults in your course need support learning how to email from the iPad? Connect to family and friends with Facetime or Google Meet? Do the adults want to learn how to search for jobs online? Would it be helpful to show them how to order groceries or prescriptions for delivery?
