WHAT WE DO

Community Collaboration

People focused. We work with rural and urban communities to design, create, and customize technology solutions to solve digital exclusion, so people can connect and be productive.

Internet For All

Fast, reliable, and affordable internet. We collaborate to design and support community networks, so every home, small business, and community has available digital access.

Community Empowerment

People helping people. We support personalized training to enable community workforces to support people and their online needs, the way they need it.

Technology Services

Personalized support. We create and deliver state of the art models and tools to help people get up to speed and online for work, legal and financial support, and healthcare.

Advocacy

Top-down accountability. We ensure that communities and leaders have the data and support they need to advocate for the digital rights of all people and create policies that support those rights.

 

OUR SERVICES

Our team, partners, and collaborators all work together to reimagine local communities free of digital exclusion offering culturally supportive internet services to help people empower their future. Our services span a variety of technologies currently in 28 cities, across two regions, and on three proven platforms enabling people and communities access to digital services, training, and support to thrive.

moNET

moNET empowers people to own and operate infrastructure that provides free and affordable high-speed internet to underrepresented communities. Through last-mile wireless Citizen Band Radio Service (CBRS) and Wi-Fi, moNET creates open community access, digital inclusion zones, and in-home internet.

moDAT

moDAT provides users direct access to local digital literacy training services, free to affordable digital devices, internet subsidies, and onramps to other non-digital services and community assets that address food insecurity, healthcare, finance, and childcare.

moHEALTH

moHEALTH is a culturally customized digital health training and certification program with always-on tools to empower digital navigators to provide telehealth services to people in their communities who need it.

moDESK

moDESK is an easy to use multilingual online support system for communities to access and navigate digital resources and services. Integrated into mohuman’s moDAT online digital inclusion platform, people can access live agents and their community digital navigators for assistance by chat, text, email, or phone.

WHAT THEY SAY

mohuman is harnessing the power of community and empowering the digitally excluded with the tools they need to thrive. I joined the Board of Directors because mohuman’s mission is so important; if we want true equity in our communities, we need strong internet connectivity and digital tools in the hands of the individuals who need it most. I can’t wait to see how mohuman continues to grow as we help the people who need it most.
