Our next event focuses on internet access in underserved communities
December 15th from 1:00pm - 2:15pm ET
Children began attending school online, many businesses transitioned to telework, and health care providers shifted to telehealth appointments. Underserved communities face challenges to get reliable home internet access due to high cost or lack of accessibility in their area.
Congress gave $3.2 billion to help households connect - so far more than 7.4 million households have gotten financial assistance to make internet more affordable.
Did pandemic relief programs bring us closer to bridging
