Our Mission

Community Media Access Collaborative (CMAC) is a membership-based, 501c3 non-profit organization created to help citizens, schools, non-profits, public agencies and others better connect with our community through the use of media.

CMAC’s mission is to empower voices in the community to promote awareness, understanding, dialogue and civic engagement by providing media resources, access to training, and broadening media literacy.

Our Community Media Center is located on the 2nd and 3rd floors of the historic Fresno Bee building in downtown Fresno and opened on April 13, 2012. The media center offers a full range of production tools and training at low cost to community users. The facility includes classrooms, meeting rooms, editing suites, a computer lab, TV studio, and podcasting studio. CMAC also operates three television channels on Comcast and AT&T U-verse, and streaming on Roku, Apple TV, and cmac.tv. These platforms are available for community producers to distribute the video and audio programming they create.
