Families Looking for Affordable Internet
Families and individuals who are in need of affordable internet can not signup for the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) which is provided and managed by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC). During the Covid pandemic BCPS provided cellular based hotspots for families in Baltimore County who either did not have access to high speed internet, or who could not afford high speed internet. The new FCC ACP program replaces the BCPS provided cellular hotspots effective 7/1/22. If you would like more information on the ACP program, please check the Affordable Connectivity Program site on the Federal Communications Program website.
