NAAC works with the California Emerging Technology Fund (CETF) to increase broadband adoption among low- to middle-income underserved residents in California.

In partnership with broadband service providers, NAAC has established Hope booths in supermarkets to ensure that eligible families are aware of the program.

The Emergency Broadband Benefit is an FCC program to help families and households struggling to afford internet service during the COVID-19 pandemic. This new benefit will connect eligible households to jobs, critical healthcare services, virtual classrooms, and so much more.

The Emergency Broadband Benefit is limited to one monthly service discount and one device discount per household.
