MPBN Community Advisory Board

The Community Advisory Board (CAB) serves in an advisory role to the Maine Public Broadcasting Network's Board of Trustees and staff. It consists of between 15 and 20 volunteer members who meet twice a year -- once in Bangor and once in Lewiston, with reimbursement for mileage -- to offer valuable feedback to MPBN on a host of programming and membership issues. Its primary purpose is to help ensure that MPBN is being responsive to community needs by serving as MPBN's "eyes and ears" throughout Maine.

Community Advisory Board Openings

MPBN is currently seeking to add members to the CAB. If you would like to be considered for a four-year term, please download an application, fill it out and return to: MPBN, 1450 Lisbon Street, Lewiston, ME 04240 ATTN: Community Advisory Board.
