Why Broadband is Important
The North Country of New York has a high percentage of families who are underserved, as well as UNSERVED, when it comes to high-speed Internet services.
Broadband for low-income families
President Obama wants to narrow the ‘homework gap’ that currently exists… making it difficult for low-income children to complete their homework because they are un-connected once they get home from school.
Many ‘under-connected’
A new survey finds that many low-income families are “under-connected” to the Internet. in many cases getting by with only a single Internet-connected computer or, quite often, with mobile-only Internet access through a smartphone or two.
Changing “Broadband”
