High Plains Public Radio is a network of public radio stations serving the High Plains region of western Kansas, the Texas Panhandle, the Oklahoma Panhandle and eastern Colorado. The network is headquartered in Garden City, Kansas and operates an additional sudio in Amarillo, Texas.

The network's flagship station, KANZ (91.1 FM) in Garden City, signed on in 1980. Over the next three decades, it has added five other stations in Kansas and Texas, as well as low-powered translators in Oklahoma and Colorado. Most of these areas had never been previously served by an NPR station before.
