Adelante Connect: Bridging the Digital Divide in Pueblo

Client: Adelante Connect
Scope: Data Analysis + Data Storytelling
Focus Area: Digital Equity, Inclusion, and Broadband Access

Adelante Connect is a bold, community-driven initiative working to ensure that 100% of Pueblo residents are connected to the internet and actively engaged in the knowledge economy. By promoting digital literacy, access, and equity, this effort is laying the foundation for a future where all individuals—regardless of income, age, or background—can thrive in a tech-centered world.

IdeaHouse partnered with Adelante Connect as part of a grant-funded pilot project aimed at identifying, illustrating, and addressing the barriers that limit digital participation in Pueblo’s anchor communities. Our role has centered on transforming complex data into meaningful insights that serve both practical implementation and community advocacy.

Using human-centered data analysis and compelling data storytelling, IdeaHouse is helping bring clarity to the patterns, challenges, and opportunities surrounding broadband access in Pueblo. From usage trends and accessibility gaps to the human impact of connectivity, our deliverables support Adelante Connect in raising awareness and guiding decision-making rooted in community need.

Together, we’re working to empower students, families, and local organizations with the tools, knowledge, and infrastructure necessary to fully participate in the digital landscape. Through this collaboration, we’re not just analyzing data—we’re telling the story of a more connected Pueblo.
