Affordable Connectivity Program

The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) is a U.S. government program run by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to help low-income households pay for internet service and connected devices like a laptop or tablet. We are promoting the Affordable Connectivity Program because we recognize how essential it is for people in the community to have reliable internet access to be better positioned for tech training and technology related careers. Our team will be assisting with intake and enrollment to streamline the opportunity to people in need. You are likely eligible if your household’s income is below 200% of the Federal Poverty Line, or if you or someone you live with currently receives a government benefit like SNAP, Medicaid, SSI, WIC, Pell Grant, or Free and Reduced-Price Lunch.

EEOC & Prison Reformation Petitions

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission and United States Anti-Discrimination Laws have been all but arbitrary and less than equitable about preventing or even reducing workplace discrimination and retaliation for people of color and women. We are leading the charge to gather EEOC Reformation Petitions to modernize the laws to be more equitable to the reality from the experience of the afflicted rather than the short sighted perspective of indifference from the perpetrator.

Breaking the Code is a movement to gather petition signatures to extend non-violent marijuana possession offenders the opportunity to be enrolled in coding bootcamps and volunteer to support a minority owned or woman owned business for sentence reduction or exoneration.
