Mission

We, the founding members of the Public Media Corps, believe that we can close this nation's digital opportunity divide through new models of community service. We connect our communities to the informative, expressive, and transformative potential of digital media in all its depth, meaning and value. United by the principles of civic engagement, social justice and reciprocity, we strengthen community voices and create networks, partnerships and dialogue between schools, service organizations, local communities and public media.
