Newsroom on Access SF strives to bring voices and issues of relevance from around the world. Because the program is not sponsored by any business entity or individual, it is unencumbered by anyone or anything.

Among its numerous accolades, Newsroom on Access SF won a WAVE (Western Access Video Excellence) award in 2005 for Community News Program Non - Professional, and was nominated for a 2004-2005 Emmy Award (National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences San Francisco/Northern California Chapter) in the Current/Public Affairs Program category.
