The Emergency Broadband Benefit Program (EBB), launched by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), serves to help households negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, pay for internet service. Eligible households will be able to connect to jobs, healthcare services, and distance learning.

The webinar will be consumer-focused, providing an overview view of the EBB program, eligibility information, and enrollment procedures. Registration is not required for this event.
