Helping Local Leaders Plan for Broadband Access and Digital Equity

‍

The Appalachian Digital Accelerator program supports local communities as they create custom connectivity plans: roadmaps for improving digital connectivity and skills that lead to new economic opportunities, educational advancement, and healthier communities. 

‍

By planning internet connectivity at the municipal and county levels, local communities can strategically connect with state and federal resources, as well as create partnerships across sectors.

Communities Impacted

In the Appalachian Digital Accelerator program, Thrive Regional Partnership worked alongside three counties in the tri-state:

  • Bradley County, Tennessee
  • Walker County, Georgia
  • Whitfield County, Georgia
