Welcome!

Indiana Public Broadcasting Stations, Inc. (IPBS) is a not-for-profit association of nine NPR radio stations and eight PBS television stations that serve as trusted resources for news, educational programming, and entertainment.  IPBS member stations work together to deliver free and accessible programming over the air, online, and in person. They reach 95% of Indiana’s population and more than 2.5 million Hoosiers consume IPBS content on a weekly basis.

The mission of IPBS is to connect Indiana’s public media stations to the critical support and insights they need to inspire and serve all Hoosiers.  Stations are located in Bloomington, Elkhart, Evansville, Fort Wayne, Indianapolis, Merrillville, Muncie, South Bend, Vincennes, and West Lafayette.

Our Impact

Indiana public television and radio stations are catalysts for education, dedicated to lifelong learning for every Hoosier.  IPBS stations provide national and local content to classrooms, offer teacher training, and provide broadcasting and datacasting services to school districts engaged in at-home learning.

IPBS stations embrace their public safety responsibility and are committed to maximizing technology for the public good.  IPBS stations serve the general public by providing live weather radar, alert messaging and essential training to first responders through emergency simulations and developmental exercises.

 

 

Public broadcasters in Indiana regard their viewers and listeners as citizens, not consumers. Providing trustworthy news and information and facilitating thoughtful civic discourse is of paramount importance.

  • Statement from IPBS Executive Director Mark Newman on the Passage of the Rescissions Act

    Early this morning, the U.S. House of Representatives voted to eliminate all previously approved federal funding for public media—a devastating outcome for our entire system. For the first time in history, Congress has rescinded $1.1 billion in critical support for public media, despite overwhelming public opposition. This decision is a serious setback. But our IPBS member stations are not giving up. Public media will continue to operate in Indiana, and our commitment to Hoosiers remains as strong as ever.
