Lake County tackles digital divide

Lake County residents and organizations who want to help address the digital divide are invited to join the new Digital Equity Coalition.

The group was created to increase digital skills, access to devices and resources.

The first in-person meeting will be held in September. The coalition is part of the Lake County Digital Growth Initiative, created to better understand the current state of high-speed internet service and digital equity in the county and implement solutions for improvement.
