The Clayton County Board of Commissioners Office of Digital Equity is gearing up to host its first-ever townhall meeting tomorrow at the Board of Commissioners Board Room in Jonesboro, GA. Designed as a Clayton connected event, the gathering aims to invite discussions on digital equity, with a special focus on access, affordability, and inclusion relevant to both residents and the business community of the County.
The meeting's agenda is set to address a wide range of topics, including a presentation detailing the county's ongoing efforts to promote digital equity. Additionally, the townhall will provide an open platform for locals to voice their personal stories, pinpointing hurdles and floating possible solutions related to digital access and inclusivity. Takiyah Thomas, Digital Equity Administrator, underscored the importance of this initiative, “Digital equity is essential for economic growth, education, healthcare, and overall quality of life in our community,” according to the Clayton County news release.
Residents who are eager to make their voices heard can register for the townhall through an online platform. The opportunity to attend extends beyond physical presence, as an alternative virtual option is also available for those unable to attend in-person, ensuring broader community engagement. Both registration and virtual attendance can be arranged via links shared by the Office of Digital Equity, as mentioned on the county's official website.
