The City of Tempe is holding a free workshop on Thursday to help residents apply for free or reduced internet costs through the Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP). MORE ⬇️
“The Affordable Connectivity Program is a program through the federal government to assist low-income households with getting the internet and, in some cases, through this program, they could qualify for the Internet for free,” said Heather Hamilton, a Connect Tempe facilitator.
The workshop is part of the City of Tempe’s Digital Skills Ready@50+ program, which is specifically designed for adults aged 50 years of age or older. The goal of the program, Hamilton said, is to increase digital equity, so residents can feel more connected to the modern world. Classes are made possible through a grant from AARP, and a donation from Google to “address the digital equity issues that exist for low-income, older adults across the county,” Hamilton said.
