Why Community Radio?

Community radio stations build stronger communities by:

• Encouraging community development
• Investigating underreported issues and concerns
• Highlighting the needs of underserved populations
• Giving a voice to members of the community that are not broadcast by mainstream commercial media
• Allowing the community a chance to actively participate in the media

Community radio is by the people, for the people.
