Modeled after C-SPAN, the Illinois Channel is an educational, nonprofit corporation formed to provide unedited, nonpartisan, televised coverage of Illinois state government proceedings and other public affairs events from around the state.

The mission of the Illinois Channel is: 1) to provide citizens with the means to watch their state government at work; 2) to provide elected and appointed officials and others who influence public policy with a direct conduit to citizens without filtering their points of view; 3) to provide the audience with frequent, unfettered access to elected and appointed officials, governmental bodies, agencies and commissions, and other decision makers; and 4) to adhere to broadcast production values that accurately convey the business of state government without editing, interpreting, or distorting the proceedings.
