[Federal investment in tribal broadband](https://broadbandbreakfast.com/ntia-announces-790-million-in-tribal-broadband-funding/) has grown significantly in recent years, yet adoption rates in these communities continue to [lag behind the national average](https://broadbandbreakfast.com/researcher-tribal-areas-have-lower-broadband-adoption-rates/). Closing the adoption gap in tribal areas calls for approaches that account for the distinct governance, geographic, and community conditions of tribal lands. This session looks at what's working, where momentum is building, and how federal agencies, ISPs, and industry partners can strengthen their support for tribal broadband initiatives.
