0 Comments

 
In March 2021, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) officially launched the Emergency Broadband Benefit Program (EBB). This program is designed to provide support for broadband services and certain devices to help low-income households stay connected.

Visit getemergencybroadband.org today to learn more about this program. Applications will be available at the end of April 2021.  Get Emergency Broadband Story video gives a more detailed explanation of the program.


Emergency Broadband Support Center Hotline: (833) 511-0311 or email EBBHelp@USAC.org. The hotline is open from 9am-9pm ET, 7 days a week.

Information about the EBB program is still forthcoming. For more information please visit this LibGuide  developed by the Western New York Library Resources Council.  It is designed to help you stay up-to-date on what the Emergency Broadband Benefit Program entails, what the eligibility requirements are, and provide you with the resources you need to help your students stay informed. While this LibGuide is focused on the EBB, it also identifies other programs and funds related to digital equity available in both New York State and federally.
