Together with nonprofit partners and city leaders, we are building safe spaces for students and families to connect to free WiFi for distance learning at more than 1,000 Lift Zones in community centers across the county; including 118 here in the Twin Cities. Lift Zones provide not only free Internet connectivity, but also access to hundreds of hours of educational and digital skills content to help families and site coordinators navigate online learning.
