Deer Lakes School District households may apply for the Emergency Broadband Benefit (EBB) program, a Federal Communications Commission program that provides a temporary discount on monthly broadband bills for qualifying low-income households.
The EBB program may provide:
- Up to a $50/month discount on your broadband service and associated equipment rentals
- Up to a $75/month discount if your household is on qualifying Tribal lands
- A one-time discount of up to $100 for a laptop, tablet, or desktop computer (with a co-payment of more than $10 but less than $50)
The EBB is temporary and will expire when funds are exhausted or six months after the Department of Health and Human Services declares the end of the COVID-19 health emergency. To stay up to date on the EBB Program, sign up for the EBB Program email list.
