This week, we are releasing a bonus episode of the Community Broadband Bits Podcast, featuring a recent National Digital Inclusion Alliance (NDIA) webinar on the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) that recently passed in Congress.
In this webinar, NDIA Policy Director, Amy Huffman breaks down the programs created by the more than $65 billion that’s been allocated to broadband infrastructure. Huffman explains how communities and organizations can be eligible to receive funds through the Digital Equity Act and sub grants through the Broadband Equity, Access and Deployment Program.
For more information, including the video webinar with slides and a list of frequently asked questions go to this NDIA blogpost.
