Community Hotline October 2021
Channel: MetroEast Community Media
Date: 13/10/2021

For the past quarter of a century MetroEast Community Media has brought you information about local  nonprofits, schools, & government agencies via our flagship program, Community Hotline. The guests who have appeared on our program have effected positive change and strengthened our community through the inspiring & necessary work they do. Now, after almost 25 years of broadcast on cable TV, and upon Host Monica Weitzel's retirement, Community Hotline is going on indefinite hiatus. For our final show for now, we are going to spotlight community media.
 
We’ll start  by talking to Antoine Haywood, a PHD student at the Annenberg school of Communications in Pennsylvania about the important role that  Community Media has to play throughout the country.
Then we’ll talk with one of our local partners, the Rosewood initiative, about  working with MetroEast to bring digital literacy to immigrant and refugee communites right here in east county. And finally we’ll talk to MetroEast deputy director John Lugton, about some of the ways we’ve adapted our services to continue serving the community through the pandemic.
It’s all coming up next, on Community Hotline.
