Broadband

We work to expand access to high-speed internet by convening relevant stakeholders, elected officials, and community members to identify broadband solutions. As a convener, we connect towns doing similar work and provide expertise to help move projects forward. Our goal is to attract more funding to the region and be a conduit between municipalities and the state so that state-level decisions reflect community needs.
