Community TV Network Chicago
Community TV Network (CTVN) is a non-profit organization that empowers Chicago youth with training in video and multimedia production. Through CTVN’s programs, young people become inspired to speak from their own unique points of view and promote dialogue on community solutions.
Since its founding in 1974, CTVN has used media as a tool to improve the education, quality of life, and opportunities available to underserved youth in Chicago.
