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. Venay, was invited to have a conversation on digital equity in Boston, the challenges it created for many families during COVID-19, and how to advance effective solutions. 5 for Good: Tech Goes Home and MACIR offer free IT training Tech Goes Home's work with our partner MACIR was featured on WCVB.

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."

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. ABOUT US Founded in 2000, Tech Goes Home (TGH) empowers communities to access and use digital tools to overcome barriers and advance lives. We bring computers, internet, and training to those without so students can do homework, adults can find jobs and manage finances, seniors can connect with loved ones, and all can lead healthy lives. In the past five years alone, we have graduated 22,000 learners from our programs and distributed 14,500 new computers. TGH programs serve people of all ages, from 3 to 94, living in communities throughout Greater Boston. Our programs are directed at those without technology at home, with a focus on individuals who are un- or under-employed, are from low-income households, have limited English proficiency, or are living with disabilities. Of the households that TGH serves: 90% live in households that are considered “very low income” (HUD 2017), 90% are people of color, nearly 50% are English language learners, and 34% of adult learners are unemployed. Learn More Technology for all ages TGH has opportunities for folks from age 3 to 94. See how TGH can help you! 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.

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. STRATEGIC PLAN With the help of countless TGH instructors, learners, partners, and supporters, we finished the implementation of a comprehensive three-year strategic plan at the end of 2019. With our strategic plan as a roadmap, we expanded our work beyond the City of Boston into nine additional communities in Greater Boston and strengthened our evaluation practices. We also achieved a higher level of sustainability by diversifying our funding sources, growing our board, and enhancing financial systems. In the past five years alone, we have served 22,000 learners and distributed 14,500 new computers in communities across Greater Boston. We have temporarily paused our second strategic planning process due to the COVID-19 pandemic, but we look forward to resuming the process soon. In building our second strategic plan, we will engage numerous partners and community leaders to identify our opportunities for growth and create a plan to sustainably support that growth. SUSTAINABILITY Tech Goes Home will become a sustainable organization. GROWTH Tech Goes Home will grow to serve Greater Boston, becoming a national leader. EFFICACY Tech Goes Home will be demonstrably effective at serving the most critical digital needs of the people we serve. You can download our complete strategic plan here .

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.
