Let Us Help You Close the Digital Divide
Since 2008, Community Tech Network (CTN) has helped adults of all ages benefit from the power of the internet. CTN provides organizations with the knowledge, training, and support to implement successful digital equity initiatives and better serve their trainers and managers on the ground.
Capacity Building
We teach other organizations and government agencies how to offer technology classes and get their community connected to the internet. We offer self-paced, online courses (great for individuals, like librarians and nonprofit leaders), as well as packages for organizations that include personalized advice and support from CTN’s expert team.

CTN provides technology classes and devices to older adults, non-English speakers, people with disabilities, and folks from low-income households. We offer our culturally-inclusive classes in eight languages in public libraries, housing developments, senior centers, and other community-based locations. We also offer virtual, 1:1 technology instruction, which is particularly helpful for rural and homebound individuals.
