The WKAR Community Advisory Board (CAB) has been a part of WKAR's broadcasting services since 1972, serving as a liaison between the community and WKAR. The CAB's mission is described in the By-Laws:

The purpose of the Board is to reflect and communicate the needs and the interests of the community to station management. Duties include advising station management on such topics as general station policy and programming goals; heightening community awareness; advocating for broad-based support of WKAR; identifying and encouraging new sources of funding for specific projects to improve or expand service to the community; reviewing and advising on legislation designed to improve the quality of public telecommunications; and considering other responsibilities as requested by station management.

The CAB meets six times a year. (See Calendar link on left side of page.) Members are elected for three-year terms which begin July 1st and end June 30th. Nominations for new members are accepted March 1- March 31. The Board votes on new members at the June meeting.
