Working Together for Digital Equity

May 24, 2022, 12:00 Noon – 1:00 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

 

More than ever, digital equity is recognized as a critical component to enable our communities, businesses and local economies to flourish. New Jersey has made extraordinary progress to connect residents before and during the COVID-19 pandemic, and continues its collaboration with philanthropic organizations, the private sector and other units of government to position our communities to benefit from an increasingly digital future.

Join our panel of experts to learn about digital equity partners in New Jersey and how these relationships can amplify your own digital equity work. Jointly presented by the Office of the Governor and the New Jersey State Library, the discussion will be focused on three key areas of digital equity and digital inclusion work: devices, internet connectivity, and digital literacy training for all community members.

 

Speakers include:

• Deborah E. Cornavaca, Ph.D. Deputy Chief of Staff, Office of the Governor, State of New Jersey (welcome/introduction)
• Jen Nelson, New Jersey State Librarian (welcome/introduction)
• Dylan Zajac, Founder & Executive Director, Computers4People
• Reggie Bouzy, Account Manager, Mobile Citizen, a Voqal project
• Mimi Lee, Director of Literacy and Learning, New Jersey State Library
