Mission Statement

KERA is a community-supported media organization that delivers distinctive, relevant and essential content to North Texans. Through programming that reflects the spirit and diversity of our region, we provide an invaluable alternative to commercial media. The mission of North Texas Public Broadcasting is to serve North Texans through public television, radio and multimedia resources that educate, engage, inspire, inform and entertain. KERA serves the fourth-largest population area in the country. Each week, more than 2.6 million people connect with KERA through our television and radio broadcast channels, websites, social media and mobile apps.. North Texas Public Broadcasting, KERA’s parent organization, is a not-for profit 501(c)(3) educational organization that, from its earliest days, has largely been funded through the generous financial support from individuals and foundations. Gifts of all sizes help to ensure that KERA remains a relevant, vital and celebrated community resource for all North Texans. KERA serves this community through six public broadcasting stations — KERA TV, KERA News 90.1 FM, KXT 91.7 FM, WRR 101.1 FM, KERA Create, KERA World, and KERA Kids 24/7.
