“(Technology) is an important way to build infrastructure and invest in the people, and build the strength of the city. Now that we’ve learned it was such a big gap for us, and we’ve made a lot of headway with it, this isn’t the time to ramp down, this is the time to ramp up.”
Now is the time to invest and extend our REACH with partners like Sydewayz Tech, Oakland Undivided Campaign

https://oaklandside.org/.../oakland-made-gains-in.../

Before the pandemic, just 12% of low-income students in Oakland had a computer or reliable internet at home. Going into the fall, 98% now have them, according to Oakland Undivided.
