KVIE is far more than television. In fact, we don't think of ourselves as being in the business of television. Our business, rather, is really about ideas, learning, arts and culture, and citizenship. Television is simply the means by which we deliver these resources to our community.
As a public service, we profit by improving the community in which we depend for support. We succeed to the extent that our children learn, our viewers become engaged in matters that concern them, and those within our communities join together in a common cause.
KVIE Outreach
KVIE's Outreach is a unique service that connects KVIE to the community by extending the content of broadcasts and expanding their impact. Through outreach, collaborative partnerships are formed to address important issues such as education, end-of-life concerns, and healthcare. The overall goal of these outreach projects is to engage Central Valley citizens in dialogue and activity. Outreach projects may include public forums, previews and screenings, or classroom presentations. These projects help community members identify ways to address important issues.
