Lower Sioux Indian Community (Cansayapi Otunwe) is proud to announce an awarding of a broadband grant for $1,995,787 as part of the Biden-Harris Administration’s Tribal Broadband Connectivity Program (TBCP) that is administered by the Department of Commerce’s National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA). During the pandemic, Lower Sioux realized just how important broadband connectivity was to the community as children relied on it for schooling, adults needed it for work and the whole community utilized it to stay connected. This Lower Sioux Broadband will provide affordable efficient fiber directly to 160+ homes and businesses within the community. This endeavor will allow for the control of infrastructure broadband services and in doing so, it will give the capabilities to control not only the current broadband needs but will also allow for future planning as the community expands.
