Sky Solutions takes immense pride in supporting initiatives that empower underserved communities. One such initiative we participated in was the 2024 TSASP Institute Conference.
The Tribal Sexual Assault Services Program (TSASP), established under the Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) of 2005, is the first federal funding initiative exclusively dedicated to providing culturally relevant services tailored to the unique needs of sexual assault victims in tribal communities. This program ensures survivors have access to resources that honor their cultural contexts and experiences.
Anil Boinapalli, Founder and CEO of Sky Solutions, shared his reflections after attending the 2024 Tribal Sexual Assault Services Program Institute: Empowerment Through Advocacy. Alongside colleagues Ericka Law and Eulana Williams, Anil emphasized Sky Solutions’ commitment to supporting the Office on Violence Against Women (OVW) and its mission. Drawing from his experiences growing up in a rural Indian village, Anil highlighted parallels between the systemic barriers faced by women in underserved communities globally and those in rural and tribal areas across the U.S.
Anil stressed the importance of addressing the digital divide, which goes beyond just access to technology, encompassing usability and inclusivity. Sky Solutions is committed to creating 508-compliant, accessible digital solutions designed to meet the needs of underserved populations, including those in poverty, rural communities, and individuals with disabilities. Anil called for greater collaboration between government and industry leaders to develop government services that are not only advanced but also inclusive and impactful.
As a father, husband, and advocate for rural communities, Anil urged collective action to bridge the digital divide and ensure technology serves everyone, turning the insights from events like the OVW Institute into meaningful change.
At Sky Solutions, bridging the digital divide is not just about technology—it’s about ensuring inclusivity, accessibility, and equity for all, especially those in rural and tribal areas. Together with our partners and government agencies, we are committed to creating impactful digital solutions that truly make a difference.
