The article, which can you can read for free via the Uncle Sam Helps website, joins a collection of other informative and educational pieces, covering everything from healthcare, food, housing, and job training assistance programs. The piece explains how the ACP was borne out of limitations identified in the Lifeline program which was first launched in the 1980s

The ACP was rolled out as part of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act which was signed into law in November 2021. The legislation provided $14.2 billion to modify and extend the existing Emergency Broadband Benefit Program. According to the guide, the ACP mainly targets families on low incomes, granting concessions or free internet to households with earnings 200% below the Federal poverty line. Do you qualify?

If you're already enrolled in other government assistance programs like Medicaid, SSI, SNAP, Veteran's Affairs Survivor's Benefit, and the aforementioned Lifeline, you may also be eligible for ACP support.

The article outlines what the ACP means for you in real terms. A reduction of up to $30 on your monthly internet charges ($75 if you're living on tribal lands) and a free phone service connection are claimable under the initiative. If you want to purchase a laptop or tablet, you could also receive a contribution of up to $100 toward the purchase price.

As the piece goes on to explain, there's a wide range of ACP-approved providers including DSL, satellite, and cable companies alongside some fixed wireless services. You can sign up directly through the ACP website, via traditional mail, and through service providers. Learn more at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aTZk4DOMZPQ
