Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Announces The Final Month Of The Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP)

Event Description: 

On March 4, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) issued a Public Notice announcing that the last fully funded month for the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) benefit is April 2024. April will be the final month that households receiving the benefit will see it applied to their monthly internet bill and without renewed funding from Congress, the ACP will only be able to provide a partial reimbursement for May 2024. ACP service providers are required to send notices about the program’s end no later than 15 days after the release of the March 4, 2024 Public Notice. 

Join the FCC’s Consumer and Governmental Affairs Bureau (CGB) for an upcoming webinar to learn about the latest updates regarding the ACP Wind-Down, the release of new consumer education materials, a review of the program’s consumer protections, and how to solicit support from the agency outreach and engagement teams to minimize consumer confusion. 

This webinar will take place on Wednesday, March 13 at 1:00 p.m. ET.  The briefing will be streamed live on www.fcc.gov/live.
