The Emergency Broadband Benefit is a $3.2 billion program designed to help cover the cost of internet subscriptions for low-income households and those affected by the pandemic.

Unfortunately, not everyone that qualifies for the program will know how or where to sign up. Community organizations, digital inclusion coalitions, libraries and schools are some of the groups best positioned to promote the EBB and help qualifying households sign up for service.

Register now for the Kansas City Fed’s webinar to learn what you need to know to help your clients. Sean Davis, Manager of Research and Policy for the National Digital Inclusion Alliance will share the latest developments on the EBB, including information on:

  • Eligibility requirements
  • How to sign up
