LocalOur Work For WCAI

Atlantic Public Media began its life as the founding organization for public radio stations WCAI, WNAN and WZAI in Cape Cod, Martha’s Vineyard, Brewster and Nantucket, known collectively as WCAI. APM is actively involved in the daily life of the station, providing regular programming and special feature content (both local and national) for broadcast.
