2018-2019 ConnectHomeUSA - Lifeline Lowers Internet Costs for Low-Income Residents

Join us to learn how Lifeline, a federal program administered by Universal Service Administrative Company (USAC), is helping to lower the monthly cost of phone and internet for low-income consumers. Find out how your residents may qualify for a monthly benefit of $9.25, up to $34.25 for those living on Tribal lands, to reduce or eliminate the cost of phone/internet connectivity. Households that participate in the public housing program, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Medicaid, certain other federal/Tribal assistance programs, or earn 135% or below the federal poverty line are eligible for a Lifeline benefit. Jessica Zufolo, the Senior Advisor for Strategic Partnerships to USAC, will discuss how Lifeline works, program rules, eligibility requirements and how to apply.
