Thank you to Boston City Councilor Kenzie Bok, who championed this funding, and City Council President Ed Flynn and City Councilor Julia Mejia, for their steadfast work to advance digital equity efforts in Boston!

Our Programs

Tech Goes Home programs serve people of all ages, with courses geared towards families, adults, entrepreneurs, older adults, and more. We bring computers, internet, and training to families and individuals throughout Massachusetts so students can do homework, adults can find jobs and manage finances, seniors can connect with loved ones, and all can lead healthy lives.  

 

We offer programs for adults, as well as family-based intergenerational programs. TGH’s family-based programs engage youth and their caregivers together to learn digital skills as a team. Each family or individual who participates in our programs completes 15 hours of live, interactive digital skills training, earning a Chromebook or iPad, and, if needed, 12 months of internet services.

Who We Are

Founded in 2000, Tech Goes Home (TGH) empowers communities to access and use digital tools to overcome barriers and advance lives. Our programs focus on serving people and communities who face systemic barriers to technology adoption.

In the past five years alone, 21,000 learners have graduated from TGH programs, and we have distributed more than 15,000 new computers in communities across Eastern Massachusetts.

Hear from Mayor Wu

During Boston's mayoral campaign, Tech Goes Home asked all of the mayoral candidates about their plans for advancing digital equity in the City. Take a look at Mayor Wu's response below.

Our Impact

We measure success by the digital life skills, computers, and internet access that graduates gain through participating in the TGH program, and the extent to which they feel empowered to apply those skills and tools to improve their lives in whatever way will benefit them most. Last year:

1,770+

graduates used their TGH device and digital skills to access telehealth appointments

980+

students are using their TGH device multiple times a week for learning

2,260+

graduates got a job, got a pay raise, entered a work training program, or started a business since participating in TGH

It takes the whole community.

Our dedicated partner organizations and investors are critical to TGH's success. Check out the individuals and groups who are supporting TGH, and see how you can become an investor or host a TGH course.
