State government: Ethnic and Community Media Program.

Abstract

Existing law establishes the Office of Community Partnerships and Strategic Communications, within the Office of Planning and Research in the office of the Governor, to serve as the manager of the state's highest priority public awareness and community outreach efforts. This bill would create the Diverse, Ethnic, and Community Media Program in the Office of Community Partnerships and Strategic Communications for the purpose of helping state departments integrate ethnic and community media into their marketing, advertising, or outreach strategies. The bill would require the office, in administering the program, to assist state agencies and departments in marketing, advertising, and outreach to certain priority populations. The bill would require a state agency or department that expends funds on marketing, advertising, or outreach to direct a certain percentage of those annual total expenditures to ethnic media outlets and community media outlets serving certain populations, as specified, except as provided. The bill would specify that of the amount directed to ethnic media outlets, state agencies shall seek to direct at least 25% to outlets that are small businesses, including microbusinesses, as specified. The bill would require any private agency or intermediary that receives funds intended to purchase advertising for the state in ethnic media outlets or community media outlets to transmit at least 80% of those funds directly to the outlets and to reserve no more than 20% for activities managed by the agency or an intermediary, except as specified. This bill would also make related legislative findings and declarations.
