About
The Indiana Connectivity Program helps connect unserved or underserved homes and businesses to broadband internet. Residents and business owners with speeds below 100 Mbps download / 20 Mbps upload can apply through the Next Level Connections portal. Internet Service Providers then review these requests and submit bids to extend service. The state’s Office of Community and Rural Affairs (OCRA) awards projects to providers offering the lowest cost per Mbps.
