About Us
The Santa Barbara Channels, came into existence
on January 1, 2003. We are a non-profit corporation with a community based Board
of Directors. We operate both Public Access (Channel 17) and Educational Access
(Channel 21) channels as part of the Public, Educational, and Governmental (PEG)
channels authorized by the Federal Communications Act in the cable franchise
areas served by Cox Communication.
Channel 17 Community Television provides a televised forum for legal, non-commercial
speech; a First Amendment beacon, a channel in which citizens and organizations
can create and disseminate information. The Chamber of Commerce, Navy League,
Coastal Housing Coalition, and the Red Cross have produced programs for Channel
17. Community Access television is a great resource for non-profits to get greater
visibility in our community while spreading awareness.
