Outreach

WTVI's outreach efforts bridge the gap between community concerns and what’s on TV by providing opportunities to engage and learn more.

We partner with community organizations in developing events and activities that are designed to engage individuals and foster community participation many times around a particular topic or issue.

Our educational outreach includes activities that support formal or classroom-based education, as well as informal education that occurs outside the classroom.

Educational outreach campaigns provide educational experiences for young people in classrooms, libraries, community-based organizations and they support the professional development of the adults who work with them.
