To all Seneca members living on the Cattaraugus and Allegany Territories:

The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) is a U.S. government program that helps many low-income households pay for broadband service and internet connected devices.

The Seneca Nation is encouraging those living on territory to apply to the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP), which is a new FCC program that provides:

  • Up to $75/month for eligible households on qualifying tribal lands;
  • A one-time discount of up to $100 for a laptop, desktop computer, or tablet purchased through a participating provider.

For more information on the ACP and how to enroll, call (877) 384-2575 or visit the ACP website at www.affordableconnectivity.gov, getinternet.gov, https://www.fcc.gov/acp
