The Lifeline Assistance Program, launched in 1985, provides low-income Americans with affordable phone and internet services. As a Lifeline provider, TruConnect Wireless offers free monthly cellular service to eligible individuals, ensuring connectivity for work, education, healthcare, and emergencies.
How Does Lifeline Support Work?
Lifeline reduces monthly communication costs, offering discounts on either wireline (landline) or wireless services (mobile). However, the benefit is limited to one service per household, either landline or mobile, not both.
