PEG Access (Public, Educational, Government)

PEG Access stands for Public, Educational, and Government access television channels, which are dedicated broadcast spaces provided by local governments. These channels enable community members, schools, and government agencies to produce and share their own programming with the public, fostering local democracy, education, and culture. Funded mainly through cable TV franchise fees paid by residents and businesses, PEG channels help ensure diverse local content is accessible, promote civic engagement, and support educational and community initiatives. They serve as outlets for local voices, news, educational programs, and public information, strengthening community connectivity and transparency.
