The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP)

Families can get help with access to affordable broadband internet:

  • Low-income households that enroll in the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) can receive up to $30 per month to pay for home internet service.
  • They can choose any internet provider they wish that is a participant in ACP.
  • Internet providers are in the process of upgrading their connection speeds to 100mbps. That's fast!
  • Full program details are available on the FCC website, including notes on eligibility and how to apply. (Full program details in Spanish.)

There are two steps to enroll:

  1. Go to ACPBenefit.org to submit an application or print out a mail-in application.
  2. Contact your preferred provider to select a plan and have the discount applied to your bill.

Some providers may have an alternative application they will ask you to complete. Eligible households must both apply for the program AND contact a participating provider to select a service plan.
