The Affordable Connectivity Program is a Federal Communications Commission benefit program that helps ensure that low-income households can afford the broadband they need for work, school, healthcare and more.

The Affordable Connectivity Program helps low income households afford home broadband service by providing up to a $30 monthly benefit on a household's monthly internet bill. For low-income households on Tribal lands the benefit is up to $75. 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 the household contributes 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.

The Federal Communications Commission is seeking comment on: How best to structure a grant program focused on outreach to households eligible to participate in the Affordable Connectivity Plan; Whether to launch a potential pilot program focused on increasing the awareness and enrollment in the Affordable Connectivity Program of eligible households participating in Federal Public Housing Assistance Programs; and Establishment of a mechanism by which a participating provider in a high-cost area may receive an enhanced benefit of up to $75 per month for broadband service.
