    Summary

    CPB invests limited funds in the production of innovative, diverse content that aligns with CPB's mission—to provide universal access to high-quality educational programming, especially to under-served audiences. CPB-supported content must be distributed through public media outlets, and with that in mind, collaborative ventures between independent producers and public media stations are highly encouraged. Support from the funds listed below is subject to availability and system content needs.

    TV & Online Video Content

    • ?TV General Program Fund backs public television content of significant educational or cultural value that U.S. viewers simply would not find elsewhere. 
    • TV Diversity and Innovation Fund promotes public television and digital projects that include a production team with diverse staff in key editorial positions (i.e. executive producer, producer, writer); a proven track record of creating quality programming; and the potential to generate a high level of interest and engagement among diverse communities.

    Radio - The Radio Program Fund supports the development of new public radio services and series, urgent or timely content, the work of independent radio producers, programming for under-served and un-served audiences, and the development of innovative content forms.
