History

Radio Nueva Vida began broadcasting on January 18, 1987, after building radio station KMRO (90.3 FM) in Camarillo, California. In 1996, additional full-service stations were added to the network to serve Bakersfield and Kern County (KGZO, 90.9 FM), and Fresno and surrounding counties (KEYQ, 980 AM). In December 10, 2012 (KDRH, 91.3 FM) in King City. It added additional FM repeater stations, which cover the California communities of Salinas, San Bernardino, Santa Ana, Victorville, Indio, Palm Springs, Soledad, Los Banos, the San Fernando Valley, Colton, Coachella, Desert Center, Lancaster, Santa Barbara, King City, Santa Maria, Rosamond, Calexico, Palmdale and Modesto.

In 2000 and 2001, Radio Nueva Vida underwent a major expansion, leasing three full-power AM stations. They were KLTX (1390 AM) in Long Beach/Los Angeles, KEZY (1240 AM) in Riverside/San Bernardino, and KSDO (1130 AM) in San Diego, all property of Hi-Favor Broadcasting, LLC. On January 1, 2019, Radio Nueva Vida ended the lease with Hi-Favor Broadcasting, and ceased to broadcast on those stations.

In 2010, Radio Nueva Vida began a relationship with the Educational Media Foundation (EMF), the non-profit which operates the English-language Christian radio networks K-Love and Air1; after the discontinuation of the God's Country Radio Network in November 2010, EMF began to carry Radio Nueva Vida on some of its stations, either on the main signal or as an HD Radio subchannel.

In December 2024, EMF reached an agreement to take over the Association for Community Education as its sole member, continuing its activities as a subsidiary. This will therefore result in the acquisition of its stations by the EMF pending FCC approval; the transaction will have no financial consideration. The parties considered it a strengthening of their existing partnerships, with the EMF stating that it would expand upon its own programming efforts targeting Hispanic and Latino Americans. [1] [2]

Programming and publication

Radio Nueva Vida's programming format consists of Christian music and teaching talk in Spanish. Its 'In House' programs target the Hispanic community and its current needs. The Sembrador Informativo is the monthly newsletter mailed to its supporters and listeners.

Means of support

Radio Nueva Vida, a non-profit organization, is listener supported in a manner similar to that of public radio stations. Its listener-supporters are called Sembradores (Seed Sowers). Sembradores are recruited twice a year in pledge drives by the station, though listeners may donate at any time. There is no minimum amount of money required to become a Sembrador; any amount is accepted and all donors are encouraged to contribute whatever they can.

Outreaches
