In June 2014, a small group of community stakeholders met to consider how to foster increased digital inclusion in our community. This small group bloomed into the Digital Inclusion Network (DIN), a coalition of community organizations interested in raising awareness about digital equity barriers and developing solutions to bridging the digital divide.

Relying on the Digital Equity Action Plan framework, the DIN continues to lead a path forward for public agencies, businesses, and community nonprofits to work together in a more efficient way. 

The perks of being a DIN member include:

• Networking and professional development opportunities
• Increased access to funding opportunities 
• Partnership and collaboration opportunities
• Access to volunteers
• Resource sharing and capacity building opportunities
• Access to public policy and advocacy professionals 
• Becoming a Lead or Supporting Partner on DEAP implementation

All are welcome and encouraged to attend a meeting or join our listserv.
