What is the Nebraska Equipment Distribution Program?
Answer — The Nebraska Equipment Distribution Program (NEDP) is a state assistance program aiding anyone who is deaf, hard of hearing, deaf/blind, or has speech impairment. It offers individuals specialized telephone and notification devices — signaling when a phone rings — at no cost. To qualify, individuals must meet five (5) qualifying criteria. There are no income guidelines. Qualifiers will receive a voucher from the Public Service Commission (PSC) via U.S. Mail entitling them to free equipment.
