Community Outreach

An area of outreach that creates a large impact is our station tours . WEFS welcomes various groups that request a tour to learn about our facility . It also affords an opportunity for both WEFS and our viewers to make a personal connection with each other . The station provides educational and current event programs for use by adults for course of study . Viewers appreciate knowing they are valued and that their points of view matter . We always look forward to our visitors becoming more invested in their local Public Television station . The station has launched a partnership with the Eastern Florida State College radio and television department to provide its students the understand of television operations and internship programs
WEFS offers tours to student groups to allow them to explore the workings of a television station . A behind-thescenes look at our facilities and talking with our staff about their jobs allow the students to gain some insight into what a career in television broadcasting may be like . Some student visitors are involved in video production projects at their own schools and may learn some production techniques they can put to use in class .
