Background Information:
This Digital Access Plan is being developed in advance of funds ($530,006) that the State of Wyoming expects to receive from the State Digital Equity Capacity Grant Program at the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). The draft plan includes a vision for digital access for the state, a set of goals to action that vision within Wyoming’s Digital Access grant program, current assets and barriers, and an implementation plan to achieve the goals and address the barriers identified. The grant program will focus on improving the affordability, adoption, and use of broadband throughout Wyoming.
