The Illinois Broadcasters Association provides the only state-wide program designed to place Non-Commercial Sustaining Announcements (NCSA Announcements) in every rated market in Illinois. Presently, 27 television stations and 142 radio stations in Illinois participate in this program. The IBA is the exclusive representative for this program designed to allow statewide public service campaign. Without this program, the only choice is to contact each station individually and hope they run the NCSA announcements on their own, or to purchase commercial airtime from each station or through a commercial advertising agency which would cost many times more for comparable airtime than the NCSA Program.
IBA is the exclusive provider of this program which is the most cost effective way of conducting a statewide public service campaign.
