On this page, you will find state-by-state resources compiled on independent phone companies and state agencies that regulate the activities of phone companies and service providers, including emergency broadband benefits.
The Federal Communications Commission set up emergency broadband benefits to subsidize internet access for families affected by the pandemic. The program also makes internet-enabled devices affordable to eligible families.
This page also contains information to help you find federal and state telephone assistance programs for low-income individuals. These programs discount your monthly phone bill for landline and cellular phone services, including calling, texting, and data.
