NW Community Radio

Community radio stations from Alaska to Oregon came together in Sept. 06 to form a regional network for locally-rooted great radio, at the Northwest Community Radio Summit. Reclaim the Media is helping to catalyze this project.

Upcoming activities include planned regional convenings over the next year in Vancouver, Eugene, Spokane, and Anchorage. Community station representatives will also be holding organizing meetings to move forward towards a functioning network.
