NHTV, North Haven Community Television, Inc., the Officially Recognized P.E.G. Access Provider for North Haven, Connecticut, was founded in 1984, by a dedicated group of volunteers, to bring public, educational and governmental television to North Haven.

In 1988, the public access channel was activated by Rollins Cablevision, joining the NHETV Educational Access channel, which began in 1976. NHTV2, the Government Access channel, was activated in 1993. In 1991, NHTV opened its first studio, editing facility and office at 21 Broadway in North Haven. The studio provided yet another way for residents to produce television programs of interest to the community.
