Partnerships For Serving Our Rural Communities
Utility providers across the country understand the challenges of providing basic infrastructure, often taken for granted in urban settings. From safe water to affordable electricity, rural service providers are meeting those difficult challenges. However, the lack of access to high-speed broadband, necessary for economic and socio-economic growth, puts rural America at a disadvantage for growing their economies, and providing the benefits of increased educational opportunities and improved health care. By partnering together, rural utility service providers can make a difference. Many existing assets have the potential to be leveraged to reduce the cost of deployment. RUS's electric, telecommunication, and water programs are working together create partnerships to deploy the high speed broadband needed to sustain, and grow, our rural communities.
