The Status of Digital Inclusion Coalitions

In the Fall of 2024, the National Digital Inclusion Alliance conducted a survey of digital inclusion coalitions to gather information about how coalitions structure their work, how they are organized, and how they measure the impact they have on their communities and states. A total of 87 coalitions responded to the survey. Although they are diverse in the locations and types of areas they serve, and even call themselves by different names (coalitions, broadband action teams, alliances, etc.), the information they shared illuminates key similarities in their compositions and the ways they go about their work. This storymap presents the survey findings through interactive maps, charts, and embedded tools. Interspersed throughout, you will also find coalition spotlights that add rich context and practical examples to the survey results. We encourage you to explore these resources to learn about the work coalitions are doing and to draw ideas and inspiration to use in your own community or state. You may scroll through the storymap in sequential order or use the menu across the top of the page to jump to sections of interest.
