How can tribal communities benefit from expanded access to Internet technology?
Because so many reservations are located in remote areas expanded access to the Internet would enable tribes to enhance their workforce development, economic development, and social service delivery efforts. Internet access would allow workers on reservations to receive job training and job referrals via online access, increasing their ability to compete for better jobs. Access to video conferencing would enable service providers to coordinate programs and meet with their clients without having to travel to remote locations. Human services often located in distant locations would be more readily available to families on the reservation through online access.
