The Affordable Connectivity Program is an FCC benefit program that helps households with costs for broadband access. Under this program, eligible households might be eligible for up to a $30 a month discount for internet service, up to a $75 a month discount for households on tribal lands and a one-time discount of up to $100 for a laptop, desktop computer, or tablet.
This might be of particular interest to you as households with participants in the National School Lunch Program, School Breakfast Program, or Food Distribution Program on Indian Reservations (among other programs and criteria) are eligible for these important benefits that support access to broadband for those in need.
Please visit the link below that provides not only additional information about the program and how to enroll but also provides links to printable brochures that could be printed and distributed to students and parents that might benefit. Your support of this important program is very much appreciated.
