Radio Apac designs, develops, and markets media services and messages for the community of Apac. The station engages the participation of the community in the production of the programmes, in part by holding research workshops to identify the broadcast information needs of communities. In an effort to reach as many community members as possible, Radio Apac broadcasts in English and Luo (Lango). Its programmes are bilingual, multi-cultural, and multi-ethnic, and aim to respond to the social and cultural needs of minority groups. Furthermore, the station recognises women producers and other minorities in the overall production of its programmes.

The initial broadcast of the station was over a 40-km radius for the Apac community. With the extension broadcast services, the coverage now includes Apac, Lira, Gulu, Kitgum, Kaberamaido, Kumi, Soroti, Masindi, and parts of Nakasongola. Initial programming was educational - including distance education for primary and secondary schools, adult literacy programmes, health education, nutrition based on traditional foods, AIDS awareness, and farming practices. Programming has expanded to include agriculture, health, women and youth, environment, business, vocational training programmes, and governance. Also, Radio Apac broadcasts programmes provided by Voice Of America (VOA).

Radio Apac also operates a multimedia centre to serve the communities of Apac. It includes a public cellular phone booth, fax services, video recording and editing, audio recording and editing, word processing services, desktop publishing services, and internet access.

Organisers explain that radio as a communication technology has enormous potential for community education in Apac and Northern Uganda because there is no need to set up telecommunication infrastructure and power cabling in order to access users, which is important considering the very limited infrastructure available in Apac. Many members of the community already posses radio receivers and are thus readily able to access the radio service.
