We're exploring how people use and pay for info. & communications technologies...

Click here to fill out our Access & Affordability Survey!

The Champlain Initiative's Changing Face of Chittenden County project is exploring how people in our region use and pay for information/communications technologies, such as home Internet, cellphone and TV.  Through our FIRST PERSON interviews, we will highlight how information and communications technologies are changing the face of our community.  Concerned that people without affordable access are being left out of the digital revolution, project partners will engage our community in a discussion about communications technology and equity.This fall we will host a public meeting to determine what policy changes, institutional or program restructuring, capacity-building or collaboration are needed to improve access and education around information and communications issues.
