The County of Riverside is one of California’s largest and most complex counties, spanning more than 7,300 square miles, 28 cities, 12 tribal nations and numerous districts. Ending the digital divide here requires collaboration and cooperation across all sectors and in every neighborhood and community.
RivcoConnect is grateful for the ongoing support and engagement of partners who are working with us across three interconnected goals:
Building Broadband Internet Capacity
One of our major goals is to expand Riverside County’s broadband infrastructure through a series of deployment projects. To accomplish such a significant undertaking requires the engagement of a variety of stakeholders, including:
Cities
Tribal Nations
Councils of Governments
Industry Partners
Education
Increasing Enrollment in ACP
In Riverside County, numerous households qualify for ACP benefits yet remain unenrolled. If you’re a local nonprofit, help us spread the word — become an ACP Outreach Partner today. For more information, please visit our ACP Toolkit page.

Through our Digital Equity Program (DEP), we are working with a number of organizational partners to ensure that all families in Riverside County have access to internet-ready computers.
