On this episode of Connected Nation, we’re focusing on an issue of equity within the broadband space—specifically digital inclusion.
We talk with a thought leader on the issue – who has both decades of experience helping vulnerable populations AND who now chairs a Federal Communications Committee that’s providing guidance to national leaders on closing the Digital Divide for those most directly impacted.
