DIGITAL INCLUSION

The Digital Inclusion Program, part of United Way’s mission to build a thriving community, equips participants with essential digital skills. Through computer help labs at local United Way centers, individuals learn tools like Google Calendar, email,  job search platforms, and more, unlocking better job opportunities and access to crucial services like healthcare, food security, and access to vital online resources. 

Registration Opens in January (Email digitalinclusion@unitedwayuc.org for More Info)

We strive to make Utah County digitally inclusive in three areas:

Access to Technology

Access to the internet

Technological literacy

Opportunities

Computer Classes

Computer skills are shared in an in-person classroom setting over 10 weeks. Volunteers teach the class as a whole and provide one one-on-one help as needed throughout the class period. This is a comprehensive class and attending is beneficial to building and retaining new computer skills. Earn a free desktop computer by completing all 10 classes and celebrate your achievement with a class graduation at the end of the course.

Adopt-a-Computer

The Adopt-a-Computer program is here to give computer access to those who wouldn’t be able to afford it other ways. Low-income adults can receive computers by completing 10 hours of time at one of the Computer Help Labs. If you are interested in participating in the Adopt-a-Computer program you can contact us at  at 801-691-5385 or by coming in to any of our Computer Help Lab locations. The computers given come from donations and are wiped and cleaned before being given out.
