The mission of CreaTV is to educate and connect San Jose communities using media to foster civic engagement. Much more than a public access cable station, CreaTV offers media production classes of all levels to the community, provides public service announcements to San Jose nonprofits free of charge, and runs a low-cost professional services department. They provide platforms that allow diverse and under-served communities to tell their stories. CreaTV is the founder of Open San Jose where NorCal Public Media is an anchor partner.
