About the company
Community Television Network, doing business as Community TV Network, is a woman-owned, tax-exempt nonprofit organization based in Chicago, Illinois that operates as a prime recipient of federal grants supporting digital media production training for youth in Chicago's Austin neighborhood. The organization does not hold federal contracts or contract vehicles; all federal activity flows through the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) in the form of project grants.
Community Television Network has received ten NEA project grants since 2009, with $1.8 million in combined dollars obligated across all awards. The organization serves a single federal customer — the National Endowment for the Arts — accounting for 100% of its federal footprint. Recent grant work centers on digital media production training programs for underserved youth populations. Between 2023 and 2026, the organization received four consecutive annual project grants from NEA: a September 2023 grant supporting staff salaries and student stipends for expansion of a digital media production program at an alternative high school (running through December 2023); a January 2024 grant supporting digital media production training for youth in Chicago's Austin neighborhood (through December 2024); a January 2025 grant for the same Austin neighborhood youth training program (through December 2025); and a January 2026 grant for the same program (through December 2026). Activity is sparse and episodic — one award per year on average since 2016 — with a single award (the January 2026 grant running through December 2026) reaching completion within the next twenty-four months and therefore facing renewal or recompete risk. Community Television Network does not serve as a subrecipient on other federal grants and does not engage in federal contracting; the organization's federal footprint is entirely grant-based and entirely dependent on NEA support.
