WHAT TO BRING TO YOUR APPOINTMENT

1. Check your email for an email from Eventbrite. Bring this as proof you have an appointment to receive a computer.

2. EVERY PERSON, INCLUDING CHILDREN, MUST APPEAR IN PERSON WITH PHOTO ID to pick-up the computer at your appointment. This is how we enforce the one computer per person limit. Passports, Driver’s Licenses, State IDs, school or work ID, or similar photo ID can be used. Bring a piece of mail addressed to you if your ID does not have an address or current address. Children can use report cards with an address that matches their parent’s ID or an online school account like ParentVue or Student Vue.

4. You will be asked for information and offered assistance at your appointment for low-cost internet programs.

DO NOT ARRIVE EARLY. We will have enough computers for everyone with an appointment. People arriving before their appointment time will be asked to wait until people with earlier appointments are served.

If you need assistance in ASL, auxiliary aids, or in languages other than English or Spanish, the County will make reasonable accommodations. Contact us at MontgomeryConnects@montgomerycountymd.gov after you have made an appointment for special accommodations, or if you do not have an address.
