Audio Conference/Webinars

On June 18th, June 25th, and July 2nd the Rural Utilities Service (RUS) will host webinars focused on the Community-Oriented Connectivity Broadband Grant Program (Community Connect Grant Program). These webinars will inform participants about the major eligibility and regulatory requirements of the program and will provide detailed guidance on how to submit a successful grant application. There will also be time for participants to ask the speakers specific questions about putting together an application.



Due to the limited amount of room available for each session, interested parties must preregister with the RUS Broadband Division. Seats for each session will be reserved in the order in which requests are received by the RUS.



To preregister, please contact ONLY Nicole Payne or Carla Johnson by phone at (202) 720-2281 or (202) 720-0667 or by email at Carla.Johnson2 at wdc.usda.gov<mailto:Carla.Johnson2 at wdc.usda.gov> or Nicole.Payne at wdc.usda.gov<mailto:Nicole.Payne at wdc.usda.gov>
