Community Advisory Board

The KAFM Community Advisory Board (CAB) is comprised of listeners of the station and members of the Grand Valley Community, that participate in non-profits, the business sector, and more.

The Community Advisory Board is a group of listeners who are interested in providing feedback and suggestions concerning the programming and overall sound of the radio station.
The Community Advisory Board does not have operational or programming control over the station.
The current membership is nine. Each member commits for a year (six meetings) and can self-renew each year.
Members are recruited from the community and should not be on-air programmers.
The meetings are moderated by a staff member (currently Coach or Katie). The moderator will compile an agenda which will drive discussion for each meeting.
Meetings are scheduled for 5:00-6:00pm every other month.
Meetings will end promptly by 6:00pm to respect members' schedules. Any leftover agenda items will carry over to the next meeting.
The minutes of each meeting are submitted to the Executive Director and the President of the Board of Directors, and posted below.

Jessica Downing-Ford

Suzi Creme Cheeze
