3,600 journalists working across 248 newsrooms. 
With a presence in every corner of the country, we’re never far from where a story’s unfolding. And, by extension, neither are you.

Telling the story of the whole country, from everywhere in the country. 
99% of the U.S. population is able to listen to one or more public radio stations, free of charge. Because everyone deserves access to quality information, regardless of their ability to pay.  

National everywhere. Local everywhere. 
We bring you closer to the people, events, politics and cultures that make your home unique, while also giving you access to NPR’s award-winning journalism and podcasts. And don’t forget the stories you get from NPR reporters around the world (because we’re global, too).
 
Mission-driven.
We represent thousands of different perspectives, but we’re united by one goal: to create a more informed public. Without a profit motive behind our work, this mission has been our driving force since day one. It’s why we remain independent and how we’re able to reflect the world as it really is.
