Grant Reminder: Broadband Technical Assistance Grants  

USDA Rural Development is accepting applications for the Broadband Technical Assistance program to promote broadband expansion in rural areas. Townships with a population under 20,000 can apply through August 20, 2024, via grants.gov, and no match is required!  

Examples of eligible projects include identifying public and private resources to finance broadband facilities; preparing studies, reports, and surveys necessary to support broadband services or request financial assistance to develop broadband facilities; and improving broadband facilities management and operations.
