$9 Million Available for Rural Broadband

'This program helps open the door to today's high-speed, high technology in the most isolated of rural communities'

Secretary of the Department of Agriculture Ann M. Veneman recently announced that $9 million in grant funds were available for connecting essential community facilities in rural towns and communities where no broadband service exists.

"This program helps open the door to today's high-speed, high technology in the most isolated of rural communities," said Veneman. "In today's world it is critical to connect basic community services to high-speed telecommunications."
