Community TV Network (CTVN) teaches cutting-edge digital video production to low-income youth throughout Chicago. We promote positive youth and community development with the overall goal of raising the educational success and economic viability of the neighborhoods where our youth participants live and work. Since1974, we have used video as an art form and educational tool to improve the opportunities available to low-income African-American and Latino youth in Chicago. In 1980, we incorporated as an independent, tax exempt nonprofit and have emerged as an innovative leader in youth media. Our media literacy curriculum empowers youth with a platform of self representation while cultivating academic and job skills, self-esteem, community awareness and intellectual curiosity. Over 9,500 of Chicago's at-risk youth have participated in CTVN's media literacy programs, creating insightful videos for their peers and leaving behind a rich legacy. The nearly 500 videos that make up our media library form a vibrant digital catalogue composed of authentic youth voices. The library serves as a valuable teaching resource and offers rarely-seen histories of Chicago communities. Every year, our youth producers add to this unique collection, producing dozens of videos that are broadcast in Chicago and New York City, streamed online, and screened in film festivals throughout the U.S.
