Broadband Breakthrough

AAMC was created from within the Broadband Breakthrough process. McLean County was one of five counties in Illinois selected to participate in the 14-week Broadband Breakthrough program, managed by the Benton Institute for Broadband and Society, and funded by the Illinois Soybean Association.

McLean County representatives and interested stakeholders came together to participate in weekly meetings beginning in January 2023. The program focused on supporting rural communities in preparing for broadband expansion. Each county team utilized the program as a foundation to advance their understanding of the county's current broadband infrastructure and access, develop county-wide surveys for residents, and begin identifying viable broadband partners to support a county broadband expansion proposal.
