From 2018 to 2022, FVCM operated with a small staff that included contracting with Steve Skinner, organizing a substantial amount of volunteer labor, and the work of Denis Moynihan and Sam Brewer as the chief operating officers. In May 2019, KFFR invited local residents to an information meeting to join the radio station to become volunteer DJs. By August, there were 10 regular announcers on the air every week. By the Fall of 2019, construction began on the current studio space upstairs from Julio’s Mexican Cantina. By April 2020, KFFR shut its doors to volunteers due to the pandemic, and Steve Skinner went on voluntary furlough as a result of limited operations. By Fall of 2021, KFFR began broadcasting from its new studio with newly trained announcers and a new studio room. In July 2022, KFFR hired Ryan Wilson as an Underwriting Specialist, and he was promoted to Executive Director in January 2023. At the end of 2023, Joanna Goodman assumed the role of President of the Board of Directors, after Denis Moynihan stepped down from this role.
Today, FVCM operates with 2.5 full time equivalent staff members, over 50 volunteers, and a 7 person board.
