					Description
						
								Access to broadband is an increasingly important issue for economic well-being, particularly in rural communities. Broadband is linked to better business performance, farm profits, higher home values, higher educational outcomes, and improved health outcomes. Despite these benefits, access to high-quality broadband is limited in many communities throughout Wisconsin, which impedes progress toward rural prosperity.  Learn about the role UW Extension plays in improving broadband access.
