As many as 250,000 Indiana students do not have a computer or internet access at home. With eLearning being an unavoidable reality right now, students are being left behind due to a lack of Digital Equity. TechPoint Foundation for Youth believes that every student should have the necessary means to connect with their classroom, teachers, and peers.
We define Digital Equity as every K-12 student having equal access to:
The technology tools necessary to have an equal opportunity for educational success (laptops and internet)
STEM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math)
