Kansas is allocating $10.4 million to support 18 organizations through the ADOPT grants program, aimed at enhancing Wi-Fi and device distribution. Examples of funded initiatives include free public Wi-Fi in Pratt parks, solar-powered Wi-Fi benches at Emporia Public Library, and a computer loaner program at Independence Community College for economically disadvantaged students. Other projects involve expanding Wi-Fi access to rural areas, distributing computers to students, and providing digital literacy training to underserved populations. The overall goal is to enhance access to technology and digital resources for all Kansans.
"By providing tools, resources, training and reliable access to that infrastructure, ADOPT provides targeted support to ensure every single Kansan can invest in their future and advance their own quality of life."
"We will continue investing in the broadband infrastructure necessary for Kansans to participate in the digital economy, but our efforts should not - and will not - end there."
