The digital divide is a serious barrier and it is impacting thousands of families across the St. Louis region. During this session we will be discussing how the bi-state is addressing the gaps around connectivity, device access, tech education, and digital inclusion.
During this session we will host a panel discussing resources available to support digital equity with Ben Kesler, Executive Director of NPower, CeAira Sargent, Managing Director of PCs for People, and Kevin Stanley, Directory of Technology at Unity Foundation
