The Affordable Connectivity Program is an FCC benefit program that helps ensure that households can afford the broadband they need for work, school, healthcare and more. The benefit provides a discount of up to $30 per month toward internet service for eligible households and up to $75 per month for households on qualifying Tribal lands.

Eligible households can also receive a one-time discount of up to $100 to purchase a laptop, desktop computer, or tablet from participating providers if they contribute more than $10 and less than $50 toward the purchase price. The Affordable Connectivity Program is limited to one monthly service discount and one device discount per household.

There are income limits based on household size. For a 1 person household, the income can be no greater than $27,180 – for a 2 person household, the lime it$36,620. There are two ways to apply. You can go to www.affordableconnectivity.gov and apply on-line or you can obtain a paper application from the Senior Center office. You will also need to contact your preferred participating provider to select a plan and have the discount applied to your bill.
