FREE Y Fi

FREE Internet Access

Digital Divide Partners is focused upon the “digital forgotten”, the Black and Brown low-income residents for whom the only “affordable” Internet is FREE Internet; those families living at or below the poverty line, many unemployed, struggling to pay the rent, medical expenses and keep the kids fed. DDP partners with The Smart Community Initiative and local resident associations and other not-for-profits to provide Internet access to their public and affordable housing residents at no cost to them.

FREE Y-Fi

DDP and The Smart Community Initiative, working in partnership with public housing resident associations and other non-profits, currently provide Y-Fi over its Community Network to three (3) developments in the Manhattan North District that is FREE to residents.

DDP Service Focus

DDP is expanding its Community Network throughout the Manhattan North District to enable The Smart Community Initiative to provide service to over 55,000 residents in 40 developments.

What FREE

Access Enables

FREE Internet enables access to digital platforms and trusted content that residents create and control.  It gives residents a voice and a way to connect with each other; and it enables free access to educational, healthcare and emergency preparedness and communications resources.
