Berkshire Regional Planning Commission will provide program coordination, linkage, and affiliation for the Baystate Alliance for Digital Equity to support MBI’s Digital Equity Partnerships Program. BRPC’s work will involve conducting interviews with key informants and convening stakeholder leaders to learn about regional challenges, needs, gaps, and strategies to address digital equity programming needs for eligible populations. In our advisement capacity, BRPC will help identify three regional partners (North, Central, South) to serve as Digital Navigators in their sub-regions and offer guidance to those entities as they seek to increase digital access, adoption, and affordability.
