Bridging the Digital Divide:
Digital Access & Literacy Program

Notice:

Thank you for your interest in the Digital Access For All program. Main CIL understands the connection to community and independence that a Chromebook can offer people with disabilities and older adults in an increasing virtual world. Funding for this program expired in 2023. We are seeking new support and will notify the community when funds become available again.

What Digital Access for All is About:

We all need reliable, affordable access to the internet for basic life functions these days. Due to a lack of economic resources, some struggle to adapt to the increasing need to connect with others virtually for health visits, work, school, socializing, and shopping. Our digital access program is here to "bridge digital divide" to assist you to become better connected to the virtual world.

Digital Access for All expands access to computers and devices, the internet and online skills training for people with disabilities and seniors, including their family members and caregivers in order to promote independence and self-sufficiency.
