North Carolina Unveils Template for Digital Inclusion Plans

North Carolina’s Broadband Infrastructure Office released its Digital Inclusion Plan Template and Guide to help local governments create plans for closing the state's digital divide. The guide is a reference for municipalities to design their own plans for managing their tech and infrastructural needs and assets. So far 14 communities throughout the state have used the template to formulate initiatives to “level the playing field” for families who don't have the broadband access and devices necessary for remote work and schooling.
