KBOO Community Radio is a non-commercial, volunteer-powered radio station based in Portland, Oregon, serving Cascadia and a global audience. It relies on listener support and operates as a full-strength community broadcaster that emphasizes access and training for diverse and underserved communities. The station aims to fill needs not met by other media through its programming. Its news and public affairs programming seeks to provide a forum for unpopular, controversial, or neglected perspectives on important issues, reflecting values such as peace, democracy, human rights, multiculturalism, environmentalism, and freedom of expression. KBOO's arts, cultural and music programming covers a wide spectrum from traditional to experimental and strives for spontaneity and excellence. Recent developments include the hiring of Mona Bowen in December 2024.
