A collaborative broadband project in Nenana, Alaska, led by local associations and Alaska Communications, will provide high-speed internet access to residences and businesses. Funded by the Tribal Broadband Connectivity Program, the initiative aims to connect 362 homes and create jobs through on-the-job training. Apprentices will benefit from both practical experience and remote training over the two-year project duration, enhancing community employment opportunities. Alaska Communications aims to offer affordable services comparable to urban areas, with the project expected to launch in early 2027, marking a significant advancement for the local community's education and healthcare access.
Through the creation of local jobs and equitable access to healthcare and education, this project marks an exciting milestone for the storied community of Nenana.
This project supports our vision for a connected community where residents will thrive with reliable, affordable internet and expanded opportunities.
