Community Journalism: Reporting for Civic Power

Catalog description

We all have roles to play in making sure our communities stay informed. This eight-week certificate program is designed to teach journalism skills and design practices to Clevelanders who want to become more active in getting and sharing the stories and information that our communities need to thrive. The program offers a hands-on exploration of how journalism works. You'll learn tools for understanding the local issues that are affecting you and your neighbors, how to see the larger systems at play, and how to report on important stories with and for your communities. This program is facilitated by Charlotte Morgan and offered through support from the Neighborhood Media Foundation, Signal Cleveland and Journalism Design at The New School.
