WHAT IS TECH GOES HOME?
Tech Goes Home Chattanooga (TGH CHA) is The Enterprise Center's digital inclusion program for residents across Hamilton County. TGH CHA is modeled after the national, award-winning Tech Goes Home program. Founded in Boston, Tech Goes Home successfully provided participants with the tools, education and access required for 21st century skills development from 1999 to February 2026. We're partnering with schools, public libraries, churches, nonprofits, and other organizations across Hamilton County to offer free courses designed to help residents develop skills and habits required for smart technology and Internet use. Participants receive fifteen hours of classroom training to help them understand why the Internet is relevant in their daily lives, may be eligible to receive a new Chromebook or tablet (upon completion of the course), and receive education about low-cost home Internet. In 2020, Tech Goes Home CHA scaled to serve Southeast Tennessee's 10 counties. With success in the regional growth, Tech Goes Home continued to expand with the partnership of statewide agencies and has since served participants in all of Tennessee's 95 counties, Northwest Georgia, and Northeast Alabama. |
