Cctv Center For Media & Democracy

Launched in 1984, CCTV Center for Media & Democracy advances free speech, promotes local democracy, facilitates participation in political decision making, and builds unity and empathy in the community by convening, recording, airing, sharing, and archiving community voices. CCTV is home to Town Meeting TV, the Vermont Language Justice Project, the CCTV Archives, and the Neighborhood Media Internship. CCTV’s advocacy and innovative project development secures media channels, tools, and training that allow community involvement in the exchange of ideas and decision making. CCTV preserves archival video assets that document the exchange of diverse ideas, local community history, and the processes of community democracy.
