About Austin Free-Net

Austin Free-Net is focused on breaking down barriers to access and education by continuing to manage integral public access computer labs throughout the city. These public access computer labs offer a variety of basic digital skills education classes and workshops in both physical and virtual environments. Additionally, we organize device donation procurement in partnership with the City of Austin’s Community PC Program which directly benefits community members and organizations who are in need of computer equipment. Our Digital Navigator program, which launched in 2021, meets the demand of the community’s desire for one on one basic digital assistance to affordable internet access, device acquisition, technical skills, communication and application support.
