Digital technology affords people an evolving assortment of avenues to connect with one another and the world around us, creating pathways to the resources and relationships we depend on to maintain our well-being and lay the bedrock for a more inclusive society. However, those without access to digital connections or devices fall behind in connecting with vital services and participating in the modern world.
In this Beyond The Blog podcast, Kiarra Louis, The Patterson Foundation’s Initiative Support Coordinator, explores The Gap, a TPF endeavor aimed at addressing the ever-widening digital divide. This initiative focuses on bridging the gap between individuals and families with access to the three essential elements of digital inclusion (connectivity, devices, and skills support) and those without. Joining her for this conversation is Sandra Vega-Picchietti, a consultant with The Patterson Foundation, who often compares The Gap to hope. Hope for connection, hope for resources, and hope for the future. Tune in to find out why!
