Since 2001, Public Media Company has been empowering public media organizations to expand their reach, engage their communities, and secure their futures. Decades later, in an era marked by profound shifts in information consumption, community engagement, and democratic participation, the imperative for nonprofit local media that serves the public interest has never been clearer.
Our new three-year strategic plan aims to meet this moment and tackle the challenges that mission-driven media face in serving their communities. Informed by conversations with stakeholders across the media landscape, the plan reflects our overall ambition to grow the reach and impact of community-focused media.
At the heart of Public Media Company’s strategy lies our continued dedication to being indispensable partners to nonprofit media organizations. For 23 years, we have been at the forefront of empowering public media organizations. Our strategic plan builds on this legacy by expanding our service to a broader system that includes public media organizations as well as other mission-driven nonprofit media organizations who serve local community needs.
As a nonprofit ourselves, we are driven by our mission to cultivate vibrant local media that informs, connects, and inspires communities. We want every town, city, and region in the country to be enriched by local media and are grateful to be part of such a vibrant network of organizations and individuals that share this vision.
We encourage you to read our new strategic plan. In it, you’ll discover our expanded mission, refined values, and strategic pillars. Please reach out with any questions or feedback you may have.
