A community-wide effort is required so that thousands of Nashvillians can realize the full potential of the digital broadband age, and obtain this benefit through an efficient and well-run program respectful of user dignity and the public/private resources. Together, hardware and connectivity is the “great equalizer of our time,” as our society’s increasing dependence on the rapid exchange of information makes this essential for the average American to access education, employment opportunities, improved health care, civic engagement, communication and a host of other services. Making access more affordable and available for our community’s citizens is a fundamental tool in the fight to break the cycle of poverty.
