STAKEHOLDER ANNOUNCEMENT
USDA Seeks Feedback from Broadband Technical
Assistance Providers and Rural Communities
FEEDBACK SESSION REGISTRATION INFORMATION BELOW
The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA) (Pub. L. 117-58) provided the Rural
Utilities Service (RUS) Telecommunications Program with funding for technical assistance
and pre-development planning activities to support the most rural communities.
RUS will host two listening sessions to solicit important feedback from rural communities
interested in receiving broadband technical assistance and technical assistance
providers serving rural communities.
Rural Communities interested in receiving broadband technical assistance
are encouraged to register to attend the Broadband Technical Assistance for
Rural Communities Listening Session on Thursday, February 23rd at 1 PM ET.
Register for this session here.
The goal of this listening session is to solicit valuable insight into the challenges
communities face in gaining broadband access, the types of technical assistance
resources that would best serve these communities, and how RUS can best provide
support.
Technical Assistance Providers interested in providing broadband technical
assistance to support the most rural communities are encouraged to register to
attend the Broadband Technical Assistance Providers Listening Session on
Tuesday, February 28th at 1 PM ET. Register for this session here.
The goal of this listening session is to solicit input on the opportunities available to provide
technical assistance for rural communities, the barriers to deliver these services, and how
RUS can help providers overcome these barriers.
