Affordable Connectivity Program Provides Monthly Subsidy for Internet Service
We are excited to share the news that there is a new program funded by the Federal Government that provides eligible families with a discount on the cost of their monthly internet service and purchase of a computer. The Affordable Connectivity Program, which is made possible by the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, is accepted by many Internet Service Providers.
Eligible households living on qualifying Tribal lands may receive a discount of up to $75 a month to cover the cost of internet service. Additionally, eligible households may receive a one-time subsidy of $100 for a computer device.
To help promote this program, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development has developed a Mini-Guide to the ACP, which provides:
An overview of the ACP program;
Tips and best practices from two Public Housing Authorities that are actively enrolling residents in ACP; and
Links to additional materials, including informational flyers in a variety of languages.
We hope you will make use of this resource. If you need assistance, please contact connecthome@hud.gov.
