CLEVELAND — Pastor Edward McGhee, leader of the True Vine Community Baptist Church in Cleveland's Glenville neighborhood, knows first hand what it's like to be a victim of Cleveland's digital divide.

Ward 9 Cleveland Councilman Kevin Conwell confirmed the digital divide has hit the Glenville neighborhood extremely hard, but is hoping the hiring of a new Cleveland Digital Equity and Inclusion Manager will play a key role in executing City’s efforts to expand broadband access. Cleveland's new Digital Equity and Inclusion Manager role is being underwritten by the Rocket Community Fund and Cleveland Foundation through a joint, $300,000, two-year investment towards salary, benefits and related expenditures for the position. The two organizations previously partnered alongside Cleveland Neighborhood Progress in 2021 to start a door-to-door canvassing program to collect data on where the city digital divide is most prevalent.
