The Affordable Connectivity Program.
The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) provides eligible households $30 off their monthly internet bill ($75 in tribal lands).
The ACP is a U.S. government program designed to help low-income households pay for high-speed internet and receive a one-time assistance subsidy for a device.
The program is administered by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). The FCC launched the program in May of 2022 with $14.2 billion in funding. This funding is estimated to last until late 2024. Funding projections can be tracked at ACPDashboard.com.
