Telemedicine Grant Available

Rural residents of Wyoming in the education and health care industries are being encouraged to apply for the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Distance Learning and Telemedicine grant by April 10. This program helps rural communities connect to each other and to the world, overcoming some of the disadvantages of remote locations and low populations. Grants of $50,000 to $1 million are available to state and local government entities, tribes, nonprofits, for-profits and other organizations. The money may be used for computer hardware and software, site licenses and maintenance contracts, extended warranties, audio and video equipment, computer network components, telecommunications terminal equipment, and a variety of associated hardware. A 15% match is required.
