Radio Nueva Vida (New Life) is aSpanish-languageChristian radio network based inCamarillo, California, United States. It is owned and operated by theEducational Media Foundation through The Association for Community Education, Inc., a California non-profit501(c)(3) organization established in 1981 and acquired by EMF in 2025.
Radio Nueva Vida began broadcasting on January 18, 1987, after building radio stationKMRO (90.3 FM) inCamarillo, California. In 1996, additional full-service stations were added to the network to serveBakersfield andKern County (KGZO, 90.9 FM), andFresno and surrounding counties (KEYQ, 980 AM). In December 10, 2012 (KDRH, 91.3 FM) inKing City. It added additional FM repeater stations, which cover the California communities ofSalinas,San Bernardino,Santa Ana,Victorville,Indio,Palm Springs,Soledad,Los Banos, theSan Fernando Valley,Colton,Coachella,Desert Center,Lancaster,Santa Barbara,King City,Santa Maria,Rosamond,Calexico,Palmdale andModesto.
In 2000 and 2001, Radio Nueva Vida underwent a major expansion, leasing three full-power AM stations. They wereKLTX (1390 AM) inLong Beach/Los Angeles,KEZY (1240 AM) inRiverside/San Bernardino, andKSDO (1130 AM) inSan Diego, all property of Hi-Favor Broadcasting, LLC. On January 1, 2019, Radio Nueva Vida ended the lease with Hi-Favor Broadcasting, and ceased to broadcast on those stations.
In 2010, Radio Nueva Vida began a relationship with theEducational Media Foundation (EMF), the non-profit which operates the English-language Christian radio networksK-Love andAir1; after the discontinuation of theGod's Country Radio Network in November 2010, EMF began to carry Radio Nueva Vida on some of its stations, either on the main signal or as anHD Radio subchannel.
In December 2024, EMF reached an agreement to take over the Association for Community Education as its sole member, continuing its activities as a subsidiary. The transaction involved no financial consideration and was described by both parties as a step to strengthen their existing partnership. EMF stated that the move would support its efforts to expand programming targeting Hispanic and Latino Americans.[1][2][3] The acquisition was completed on February 7, 2025.[4] Shortly thereafter, Radio Nueva Vida began a rapid expansion, launching broadcasts in Los Angeles, California on 92.7 FM and 91.1 FM, and in New York on 94.3 FM.
Radio Nueva Vida's programming format consists of Christian music and Spanish-language teaching and talk. Many of its programs are produced in-house to serve the Hispanic and Latino community, with content designed to address its spiritual and everyday needs. TheSembrador Informativo is a monthly newsletter mailed to supporters and listeners.
Radio Nueva Vida, a non-profit organization, is listener supported in a manner similar to that ofpublic radio stations. Its listener-supporters are calledSembradores (Seed Sowers). Sembradores are recruited twice a year inpledge drives by the station, though listeners may donate at any time. There is no minimum amount of money required to become a Sembrador; any amount is accepted and all donors are encouraged to contribute whatever they can.
