Will you help us design a more inclusive and accessible CATV?

CATV is working to improve representation of the Upper Valley's identities/interests and increase accessibility in the digital age. Four seniors from the Human-Centered Design program at Dartmouth have partnered with CATV to research the community’s opinions and behaviors regarding local media to engage new creators and audiences from underrepresented/unheard local groups. Will you complete this brief survey to help us design a better CATV ?

Thank you for supporting CATV's mission to enable open public dialogue, expression, and government transparency!
