Christian Community Action plans to use this funding to develop a story lab and increase the technology skills of people served by the organization, with the intention of benefitting both their daily lives and their ability to advocate for issues important to them. The pandemic made clear how important technology access and skills are, and many people without computers or smartphones, or expertise in using them, were unable to access telehealth services, attend virtual meetings, or sign up online for COVID-19 testing or vaccines. Christian Community Action plans to provide training on digital technology and create a story lab to help residents share their experiences and collect others’ stories to share with policymakers.
