Please join us for a conversation with Cecile Puretz to learn more about an important city-wide digital equity initiative underway in San Francisco.
The San Francisco Department of Disability and Aging Services (DAS) and the Mayor's Office on Disability (MOD) are conducting a citywide Covid-response Needs Assessment to understand technology barriers and needs of SF residents with disabilities and older adults.
COVID-19 has revealed the true extent of the digital divide, and has disproportionately impacted people with disabilities and older adults, particularly those who are multiply-marginalized, low-income, immigrants, LGBTQIA+ and from communities of color. Many people still lack basic access to the Internet, devices, and the digital literacy skills necessary to access essential services, health care, employment, and civic and cultural participation.
This survey gathers community input to help the City ensure that SF residents with disabilities and older adults have the digital resources needed in order to participate equitably. In addition to a digital survey, we will also be conducting (paid) focus groups and in-depth interviews with community members. The outreach will be guided by a paid team of Cultural Ambassadors.
In the spirit of "Nothing About Us, Without Us," the success of this project depends on learning from a diverse cross-section of San Francisco's disability and aging communities. We need your help spreading the word about our survey so that we can learn from as many people in San Francisco's disability and aging communities. Please join us for a short presentation, followed by an open conversation.
