DCTV tells stories that matter to help our communities thrive. 

As Washington, DC’s 24/7 public media platform, we amplify local voices that represent the vibrant communities of our nation’s capital. We create original content and train individuals and nonprofit organizations to engage people through the power of meaningful storytelling. DCTV reimagines the role of media and sparks relevant, inclusive conversations to build a stronger DC.

DCTV is a membership-based, non-commercial, public access television network. Since 1988, DCTV has provided residents of the DC metropolitan area the opportunity to create and telecast their own shows on cable television.  This is accomplished by: 

 Providing opportunities for community residents and organizations to create noncommercial television programs and telecast them on cable channels on a fair and equitable basis, free of censorship or editorial control.

Engaging the entire community in a dialogue that is broadly representative of its varied perspectives and cultures.

Ensuring the presence of diverse cultural groups and ideas traditionally unheard or under-represented in the media.
