The State of Georgia received a $22,455,639.68 Project Grant from the U.S. Department of Commerce's National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) under the State Digital Equity Planning and Capacity Grant Program (CFDA 11.032). The purpose of this grant is to implement Georgia's Digital Equity Plan, which was developed under a previous digital equity planning grant. The key initiatives to be delivered include digital skills training, a device ecosystem program, data collection and local capacity building, and targeted outreach efforts. These activities are expected to narrow the digital divide, improve access to digital resources, and increase the accessibility and impact of community development initiatives for underserved and unserved residents across the state of Georgia. The grant has a performance period from December 1, 2024, to November 30, 2029, and the recipient plans to subaward funds to implement the digital equity plan activities.
