JOY was more than just a voice for the communities in 2017

In the lead up to and after the postal survey, JOY fully supported the YES vote on and off the airwaves and created a space for our communities to express how they were feeling and processing through this difficult time, CEO Tennille Moisell shares with us why it was important that JOY was more than just a voice for the communities but a safe space for them as well.

 

During the YES Campaign JOY rebranded to YES94.9 with more than 1000 hours of YES content produced and broadcast across the Community Radio Network, it was a great space to hear from the diverse voices in our communities celebrating our 61.6% YES result. Shaping that voice on our airwaves was our program manager Chris Tait who continues his reflection on JOY during 2017.
