On January 21, the University of Arkansas at Monticello College of Technology-McGehee (UAM-CTM) launched the UAM-CTM Digital Literacy Program in collaboration with Digitunity and AT&T. The launch event was hosted by UAM-CTM on its campus in McGehee and attended by representatives from Digitunity and AT&T.

Digitunity is a national nonprofit organization committed to making computer ownership possible for all Americans. For over 40 years, Digitunity has worked to close the digital divide in the United States by shaping and strengthening systems that make computer ownership possible. With 1 in 7 U.S. households lacking a computer, this national-local approach mobilizes resources, influences policy and builds durable solutions that expand opportunity, participation and economic mobility. 

Digitunity and AT&T are working together to expand computer ownership and digital skills through their “3 Southern States Connected Communities Program,” which supports local organizations across Arkansas, Louisiana and Mississippi by focusing on four key components: computer distribution, digital navigator support, digital skills training and community capacity. Organizations across the three states are helping residents gain access to computers, develop new skills and build confidence with technology. Through community-based events, training and computer distribution, more people can fully participate in today’s digital world.
