The Seattle Housing Authority's Digital Navigator program is expanding again. At the beginning of 2022, SHA received a $1.8 million grant from the Washington State Department of Commerce Broadband Office to fund the program through June of this year. The state recently awarded SHA another $3.6 million to extend the program into next year.  The state grant allows SHA to offer digital navigation services to SHA residents. Digital navigation services include learning how to set up a computer, signing up for discounted internet services, navigating the internet, using contemporary meeting apps such as Zoom, Microsoft Teams and Google Meet, and using Microsoft Office to create documents with word processing and spreadsheet software. 

To support residents with these services, SHA hired Digital Navigators, and Technology Support and Digital Equity Support Specialists to work with residents.

If you are a resident of SHA housing and are interested in the program, please call 206.615.3580 or email digitalequityhelp@seattlehousing.org
