0:51Now PlayingThe Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) gives a discount on your household's monthly broadband internet service, if you are eligible. Participating broadband providers will apply this discount to your broadband plan.
If eligible, your household can receive:
Up to a $30/month discount on your internet service
A one-time discount of up to $100 for a laptop, tablet, or desktop computer (you will need to pay a copay between $10 and $50)
Only one monthly service discount and one device discount is allowed per household
Your household may be eligible if someone in the household falls under just one of these criteria:

If you or your child or dependent participate in certain government assistance programs such as SNAP, Medicaid, WIC, or other programs
If you or your child or dependent already receives a Lifeline benefit
If a child in your household attend an NYC public school that participates in the free or reduced lunch program (all NYC public schools do!)
