Community Advisory Board (CAB)
Community Advisory Board (CAB)
WSKG encourages frequent listeners and viewers to join our Community Advisory Board (CAB). CAB members represent a broad cross-section of the communities we serve, and guide our programming decisions by helping us better understand the needs and interests of our audience. This active group of volunteer leaders plays an integral part in the planning and implementation of many of our outreach programs. Their valuable recommendations strengthen our service to our community.
Community Advisory Board members come from diverse constituencies engaged with a wide array of issues such as aging/senior citizens, cultural diversity, disabilities, culture and the arts, LGBTQ rights, economy, family, health/medical services, media services, substance abuse, science/technology, youth, and education/schools.
We review all CAB applications and choose applicants who best demonstrate a passion for public broadcasting, along with an interest in the well-being of their communities. WSKG seeks to assemble a CAB representative of the racial, ethnic, religious, ideological, and geographic diversity of the region we serve.
The CAB meets quarterly via voice/video conferencing to hear from our staff on programming, services, and polices, and to offer their input and suggestions. CAB members each serve a three-year term with the option for renewal. These are unpaid, volunteer positions.
CAB meetings are open to the public and follow WSKG's meeting policy, as determined by our Board of Trustees. That policy may be reviewed here.
If you’re interested in serving on the CAB, or have any other questions about the CAB, please reach out to WSKG’s Director of Community Engagement, Bob Proehl at bproehl@wskg.org or 607-729-0100 ext. 313.
