The Broadband Alliance of Mendocino County

Who We Are and What We Do

The Broadband Alliance of Mendocino County was founded by Mendocino County government, the Community Foundation of Mendocino County, the Economic Development & Financing Corporation of Mendocino County, and the Mendocino Coast Broadband Alliance.

Underserved broadband damages Northern California's economy

Communities throughout Northern California are poorly served by broadband. Advertised service often doesn’t correspond to provided service. Inflated advertised speed and expensive service plans compound the problem.

Get Involved

Northern California counties, cities, and communities are encouraged to join with Mendocino and Sonoma Counties to improve broadband throughout the region.
