Hawaii SB1061 establishes a digital navigator pilot program to provide technical assistance with computers and electronic devices to residents.

Hawaii SB1061 aims to address digital equity by establishing a two-year digital navigator pilot program. This program, funded by the broadband and digital equity special fund, will offer technical assistance with computers and electronic devices to the public. The initiative seeks to bridge the digital divide, particularly for vulnerable and underserved populations in rural and socio-economically disadvantaged communities. The program will have locations on the islands of Oahu, Hawaii, Kauai, and Maui.
