Baltimore Digital Equity Coalition

In response to acute and urgent needs, the Baltimore Digital Equity Coalition (BDEC) was formed in March 2020 to help provide digital access for those without in the city of Baltimore. Now with more than 60 organizations participating, BDEC members are dedicated to advancing digital equity and closing the digital divide in Baltimore by working collaboratively to increase access to devices, internet, and digital skills through a lense of digital equity and social justice. 

Our Purpose: BDEC connects committed organizations and individuals to coordinated collective impact efforts that seek to advance digital equity and close the digital divide. 

Our Vision: We envision Baltimore as a city where technology’s opportunities equitably empower all residents and communities – and through this work we seek to address historic inequities to advance social justice.
