ITVS's COMMUNITY CONNECTIONS PROJECT ITVS's Community Connections Project (CCP) is a public education and outreach project that transforms timely social issue independent films and public television broadcasts into tools that engage communities, convene public dialogues and support ongoing positive action—both locally and nationally. For more than a decade, ITVS has provided independently produced programs to public television that take creative risks, advance issues and represent points of view not usually seen on television. In addition to funding, ITVS-CCP develops engaging national outreach campaigns to support a community's interest in educational development and to assure that these programs have lasting social impact. For more information about ITVS's Community Connections Project, contact outreach@itvs.org or www.itvs.org/outreach. Guide Credits Guide writer: Andy Nash, New England Literacy Resource Center.
