Internet for All in Washington: Digital Equity Plan

The Washington State Broadband Office (WSBO) developed a vision for digital equity in Washington state: Everyone in Washington has affordable broadband internet technology as well as the tools and skills needed to participate in our digital society before 2028. The WSBO has established three goals designed to achieve the stated vision:

• Eliminating barriers: Provide Washington state residents with infrastructure, devices, and tools, to maintain reliable, affordable, high-speed broadband service to bridge the digital divide.
• Empowering residents: Provide Washington state residents the information, support, and skills to obtain and cultivate digital knowledge and skills to improve access and reap the benefits of digital inclusion.
• Ensuring sustainability: Establish and build partnerships across Washington state needed to deliver and sustain broadband service and support programs for learning and engaging in civil society.
