Creating Local Impact: County Roles in Shaping the Future of Digital Equity

Wednesday, January 11, 2023 | 1:00 p.m. - 2:00 pm Eastern Time

County leaders have a critical role to play as an unprecedented level of federal investment in broadband makes billions available to close the digital divide. Expanded opportunity to access healthcare, employment, and government services through affordable high-speed internet requires county leaders to build effective partnerships, rely on data-driven results, and create a roadmap for digital equity at the local level. County leaders will walk away ready to take ownership of their role in creating digital equity plans alongside state broadband offices, an understanding of the federal funding cycle and available resources to support broadband deployment and an outline of the non-deployment funding opportunities that can help close the adoption gap and advance digital equity.
