The Benton Institute for Broadband & Society is a public policy organization focused on media and telecommunications, working to ensure these sectors serve the public interest and strengthen democracy by expanding open, affordable, high-capacity broadband across the United States. Rooted in values of access, equity, and diversity, the institute aims to connect stakeholders through information sharing and analysis to foster a more inclusive debate about communications policy. It also curates and distributes a free, reliable, non-partisan daily digest of media and communications news. Based in Wilmette, Illinois, the organization supports legal and policy experts who preserve and strengthen the public benefits of America's communications environment and help explain why these issues matter to the public. A recent development is a partnership with the American Association for Public Broadband to publish a community broadband handbook and host related webinars.
