We’re proud to celebrate Rosario Costas, featured in the new bilingual anthology Voces que Transforman Charlotte. Her story shares the impact trusted support can have on digital confidence.
Congratulations to Rosario and all 15 writers!
That’s a wrap on Digital Inclusion Week! 🧡
This week, we saw new skills, trusted support, places to learn, and technology getting a second life.
Thank you to every community member, partner, volunteer, and supporter who makes this work possible. #DIW2026
The Center for Digital Equity retweeted
"When people think about victim recovery, they rarely think of technology, yet digital security is a vital component of personal safety. This campaign bridges a critical gap. By partnering with the Center for Digital Equity, we can ensure residents have a dedicated resource to help them safely separate accounts, secure devices and move forward with confidence." - Deputy Chief Ryan Butler
Today, in honor of National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, we were joined by our partners at @CDEConnects to launch our new joint cyber safety campaign: Protect You and Your Tech. Together, we're empowering our community with tools to stay secure in a digital world.

Congratulations to the ConnectTech learners at Charlotte Refugee Resettlement Agency on completing their final class! 🎉
Learners built everyday digital skills and confidence alongside CDE Digital Navigators. This is #DIW2026 in action. 💻
Why an “operating system”? Because digital opportunity depends on many pieces working together.
do.OS connects access, trusted support, and coordinated systems to help communities keep pace as technology evolves.
That unused laptop could become someone’s connection to opportunity. 💻♻️
Donate your unused tech at NC TECH’s Digital Drive on Oct. 9, 10 a.m.–2 p.m. at E2D, 920 Hamilton St.

Technology keeps changing, and the skills people need are changing with it.
Through do.OS, CDE is helping community members build confidence with AI, online safety, and everyday digital tools while connecting those skills to greater opportunity.
Building stronger systems for digital opportunity takes collaboration.
Through do.OS, CDE is bringing community organizations, government, employers, funders, educators, healthcare partners, and others together around shared priorities and a more connected regional approach.
do.OS grew out of years of learning alongside community members, CDE Digital Navigators, organizations, employers, funders, and partners across our region.
Those experiences shaped a framework focused on stronger, more connected systems for lasting digital opportunity.
Getting connected matters, but so does having the support to navigate what comes next.
do.OS brings programs, resources, and trusted support together to help community members build confidence and access opportunity.
Explore do.OS: thecenterfordigitalequity.or…
One connection can open the door to more support. A community member may start with a CDE Digital Navigator, build skills through ConnectTech, receive a laptop, and connect with resources that support their goals.
do.OS is designed to make those pathways stronger.
Introducing do.OS, the next evolution of CDE’s work.
Built on years of community-based work, do.OS connects digital access, trusted support, and stronger systems to create lasting digital opportunity.
