(Wisconsin Radio Network) Grant funding is available to improve telecommunications access and affordability in Wisconsin.

According to the Wisconsin Radio Network, the money comes from the Wisconsin Public Service Commission’s Telemedicine Equipment and the Lifeline Outreach grant programs. The Telemedicine Equipment program supports the purchase of equipment that will enhance medical care in rural or undeserved part of the state.

The Lifeline Outreach program helps address affordability challenges by providing a discount on essential telecommunication services like internet and phone for low-income households.
