$250,749 in new Indiana Connectivity Program grants will extend broadband service to 63 locations across 21 counties, covering 60 homes and three businesses.
The 17th funding round targets addresses that providers had deemed too costly to serve, with state aid helping offset extension costs for rural areas.
Providers that win funding must finish projects within nine months of signing contracts, while residents and businesses can keep submitting addresses through the program's online portal.
Since launching in 2021, the program has awarded more than $14 million over 17 rounds and expanded access to more than 3,600 homes, businesses and community institutions statewide.
