April 19 2022 – OTTAWA<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Community Radio Fund of Canada (CRFC) has selected 35 community radio stations across Canada that will receive funding through The Local Journalism Initiative (LJI). These funds will be used to hire journalists who will create news related to underserved communities across 7 provinces and 1 territory.<\/span><\/p>\n

Funded by Canadian Heritage, the LJI supports the creation of civic journalism, increasing journalistic capacity, access to local news and consumption of local news within these communities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The CRFC continues to strive to provide funding that’s reflective of the diversity of stations broadcasting within Canada. In this round, <\/span>CHHA Radio Voces Latinas, will be the first Spanish-speaking community radio station to be funded through the initiative. Journalists will be located in and serving 14 official language minority communities. This round of funding will also support 5 Indigenous stations, the largest number in any round of CRFC funding to date.<\/span><\/p>\n
