We need Internet at Home
Lifeline Assistance Program for free or reduced internet for families to access the internet:
Many families could receive internet for as low as $1. Anyone who is low income, receiving HUD assistance, collecting SSI or Disability, SNAP, etc. can go to http://www.checklifeline.org and apply. You know you are in the right spot when you are on the page with a lady on a cellphone holding a child. There will be a box that asks to put in the state or territory you are applying for and once you provide that, the "Get Started" button will turn blue. You will click that it will ask you to create a username and password. Companies near us with Lifeline Support are U. S. Cellular, Viaero Wireless, TerraCom Wireless, Windstream Communications, Access Wireless and Nebraska Technology & Telecommunications.
