Carver named to Connect Appalachia task force
KNOX
Columbiana County Knox Township Trustee Chairman Gregory R. Carver was recently selected to the Connect Appalachia Broadband Initiative task force.
In December, the Governor’s Office of Appalachia, in conjunction with Connect Ohio, launched a special initiative to address the broadband divide facing rural Appalachia.
Connect Ohio, a division of Connected Nation, is a nonprofit, technology-neutral public-private partnership that works with telecommunications providers, business and community leaders, information technology companies, researchers, public agencies, libraries, and universities in an effort to help extend affordable high-speed Internet service to all Ohioans.
