"I’m serving on the Board of Access Humboldt because I strongly support locally created content, whether it be news or creative arts. It’s important that our community has an organization that supports the content creators of Humboldt County and provides a place for our youth, friends, & neighbors to learn how to share their voices. "
Gregg Foster
Executive Director, Redwood Region Economic Development Commission
"I serve on the Access Humboldt board as a representative for local Cities because I believe in the importance of government transparency and public access to information. I’m committed to ensuring that local governments remain open, accountable, and accessible to the communities they serve. Access Humboldt plays a vital role in empowering the public through media and communication, and I’m proud to support that mission."
Pam Powell
Assistant City Manager/City Clerk, Eureka, CA
"I volunteer with Access Humboldt because as a parent and educator I know the value of community-focused, not-for-profit media. No other source brings me the kind of content I find on Access Humboldt radio and cable channels, their archives are a precious open source of community history and I admire their willingness to work with any member of the community to get their voice to the airwaves. Like every institution of democracy, community media will only be as strong as we make it!"
Aaron Donaldson
Arcata Resident, Lecturer in Communication Studies at Cal Poly Humboldt
"I donate to Access Humboldt, because I deeply believe in independent productions, sharing cultures, learning new things, and building empathy. Access Humboldt is uniquely positioned to share media created by our friends & neighbors in an authentic, gritty way--unclouded by commercialism. You can learn so much about a community by tuning into locally made content. What will our channels say with you?"
Christina Marie
Humboldt Resident, Executive Director of Access Humboldt
"I support Access Humboldt, because it is an essential bastion of all the values I associate with the best of the USA: liberty, freedom of expression, inclusion, equity. You might say that Access Humboldt is a place where our Bill of Rights comes to life.
Access Humboldt provides a crucial watchdog function, bringing a wide variety of public meetings right into your home: Board of Supervisors sessions, council meetings for all six of our cities and what’s going on in oodles of governmental commissions too.
Most especially, Access Humboldt provides a video platform for all local points of view and the staff will teach you how to share yours. You make it; Access Humboldt will run it.
Not a source of heavily curated content, but a place for all video content. Not censored, not edited to please those not-so-mythical “powers that be.” Not financed by any government or commercial interest and so not muzzled by those entities either.
Like all those cherished American ideals, Access Humboldt lives its mission best through the full participation of all of us. And, as with voting, your voice is heard when you use it.
Access Humboldt is the home of true media freedom, living its slogan every day:
Local Voices Through Community Media."
Molly Cate
Fortuna Resident, Volunteer Board Chair, Access Humboldt
"I have been involved with Access Humboldt since 2017. I believe news and information created by local storytellers and citizen journalists is essential for a healthy and safe community."
