The Public Media Corps is a United States national public service initiative that aims to bridge the digital divide by combining public media organizations and technological outreach to disadvantaged communities, with a particular focus on urban and rural areas. Taking inspiration from programs like Teach For America, AmeriCorps, and the Peace Corps, the central idea is to bring news media and digital creatives into underserved communities to provide help encourage more digital participation and digital citizens.
