Big challenges – like high energy burdens, aging homes, and the digital divide – require many hands working together. ARF coordinates funding and programs, but our impact depends on strong partners across Alabama.
Core Ecosystem Partners
The Alabama Digital Education Network (ADEN) is powered by a unique partnership that includes the State of Alabama, Apple, Alabama Power, Alabama State University and Ed Farm.
ARF serves as a complementary partner to this work – addressing the infrastructure gaps that stand in the way of digital learning: unreliable internet, inefficient homes, and limited local job opportunities.
Energy Savings Program Supporters
The Energy Savings Program is delivered through the Alabama Resiliency Fund and supported by a combination of public and community partners, like Alabama Power.
In some communities, ESP is coordinated with broader efforts to expand digital access and learning through the Alabama Digital Education Network (ADEN). In these places, weatherization improvements help create homes that are not only more comfortable, but better suited for learning, working, and staying connected.
By aligning home weatherization with investments in broadband, devices, and local learning hubs, ESP helps ensure that families can fully benefit from both more comfortable homes and improved access to digital opportunities.
