The Oklahoma Broadband Office, a state government planning commission, was awarded a $11,233,311.64 Project Grant from the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) under the State Digital Equity Planning and Capacity Grant Program (CFDA 11.032). The purpose of this grant is to implement the Oklahoma Digital Equity Plan, which was previously developed through the State Digital Equity Planning Grant Program. Key activities include updating the state's digital equity plan, revising the Oklahoma Affordable Telecommunications Strategy, and implementing initiatives to improve access to devices and telehealth services, particularly for unserved and underserved populations across Oklahoma. The grant has a performance period from December 1, 2024 to November 30, 2029, and the Oklahoma Broadband Office plans to sub-award funds to partners to execute the digital equity activities.
