Since going on air in March 2016, CJRU has prioritized documenting the one-of-a-kind stories lived by everyday people working, creating and living within Toronto’s diverse communities. Through interviews, written articles, news reports, on-the-scene live broadcasts and more, CJRU has amplified some of the most insightful stories reflecting the journeys of local artists, entrepreneurs, community leaders, non-profit organizations and students - not to mention the station’s show hosts! CJRU has been able to share the stories that often go untold in mainstream media, and has continued to create new employment and volunteer opportunities, as well as add new content to its programming that encourages and supports individuals in telling their own stories. From November 14th to November 20th, CJRU is raising funds to develop and implement the Your Story Here mentorship program that will launch in the Spring of 2022. The program is an effort to further expand on the station’s storytelling culture by providing an opportunity for selected individuals who are doing impactful work within their communities, to be immersed in the world of community radio.
