COMMUNITY RADIO INITIATIVE (CRI)
The Community Radio Initiative (CRI) is a movement focused on revitalizing community radio stations across Canada closed due to inadequate funding and resources and restrictive regulations, creating a gap in trustworthy local news that truly reflects the diverse communities across the country.
MISSION & VISION
The CRI is dedicated to empowering local communities by providing a platform for diverse voices and perspectives. Our mission is to ensure that every community has access to reliable and inclusive local news and stories, fostering a sense of belonging and connection.
