Through the BTOP grant, TXC2 will enhance 70 public computer centers across Texas and provide computer access, technical support, digital literacy, workforce development, and other services to low-income and vulnerable populations. The centers are located across southwest Texas, Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Duval County, and several small rural communities in the Texas Brazos Valley.
