Amazing testimony from our students German, Maryam, and Uliana, who shared their experience of ESOL & advocated for continued funding.  Powerful words from @Alexaaviles: "when we invest in people the dividends are exponential," thank you so much.

It’s not just about digital access; adult learners need digital literacy too. If we are going to close the digital divide, digital literacy is essential because adult learners must be digitally proficient to participate in the digital economy. #DIW2024 #NYCADE @NYCCAL

[NYCCAL @NYCCAL]

At its core, #digitalinclusion is about creating a ​society where every individual can fully and ​equitably access and use technology. It’s a journey toward equality, access, empowerment, ​and a brighter future, and it’s a journey we must ​take together! #DIW2024 #InclusiveTech

[NYCCAL @NYCCAL]

Access to digital technology is a right, not a ​privilege, and building a world in which everyone has ​access to technology takes all of us. This ​#DigitalInclusionWeek, join us in amplifying the ​importance of bridging the digital divide together. ​#DIW2024

[NYCCAL @NYCCAL]

Join us Oct 7-11 for #DigitalInclusion Week! ​Embrace the power of technology to bridge ​divides and empower lives. Let's make a ​difference, one connection at a time. #DIW2024
