Safe Connections Act

Survivor Benefit

The Safe Connections Act (SCA) of 2022 helps survivors of domestic violence, human trafficking, and related crimes get discounted phone, internet, or bundled services through the Lifeline program. Under the SCA, at the request of a survivor, phone companies must separate phone lines linked to family plans where the abuser is on the account.

Learn more about the SCA, how to qualify, and how to apply on the USAC website.
